I think I certainly need a driver for Wi-Fi to make this work in Linux (Microsoft also uses the driver provided by the manufacturers). But for bluetooth, some reviews say, Microsoft built-in stack can also drive it (regardless of the driver porvided by BlueWiFLy). So I am presuming BlueZ can do the same. Should there be any issues with module-loading as the USB comes with both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth support? It is certainly catchy as it's comparatively cheaper solution than if you are to have both bluetooth and Wi-Fi separately. Any ideas/suggestions/comments will be helpful in this regard as I am considering buying one and trying it also in my Linux box. Thanks Mahtab --------------------------------- Love cheap thrills?
