So inherited a project of trying to get a TrendNet TEW-504UB USB wireless going on a AMD Geode setup. I manage to survive in the world of Ubuntu, but I am lost in Gentoo. I blame no flashy GUI to distract me. ;-)

Things I do know:
I'm assuming its the 2007.0 release since they started the project in June
USB is up and can see the card.
ndiswrapper is a necessary evil

Other than that, I need help. The one time in the past that I've used ndiswrapper, it just happened to work after a reboot, so my knowledge is limited. Can someone help me out?

Just a warning, for some reason the net connection in the lab was down and I had to write down the results, so there might be some typos. What am I missing?[/code]
