Hi,

I've finally gotten around to fix my FSG-3 and finalize the installation 
of Debian on it (it all started 18 months ago with my bricking it ;)).

And yes, disclaimer: I am a newbie, but I am not that bad at following 
instructions read the manuals (as long as there are manuals and someone 
that can point me in the right direction).

So, now I would like to know the status of the support.

- Is the marvel wireless card supported in any available kernel?
- How is it going with the LEDs and buttons?
- is there any configurable fan-deamon available?

More specific help wanted (that frankly is more general linux/Debian 
related than FSG):

- marvell wireless: I've seen then maxtor-package containing some kind 
of driver for the card, but honestly I just don't understand what I 
should compile from it. Alternatevly I've found a menuconfig output 
showing the marvell as an option (but I seem can't to find it again - 
more digging) any pointers?
- how do I set up my FSG to work as a wireless router (as long as I get 
the wireless card working)? I have an incoming connection in the 
WAN-port (that is eth1) that I would like to share among a few computers 
here at home.

That's it for now, thanks every one that has been working on this.

/Tomas
