Because of this and because function keys don't work in F10, I use F9
with an old kernel+madwifi. A newer F9 kernel without madwifi may also
work. F10 will probably not.

The bugzilla page above now has the fix for the suspended wifi problem
(briefly: get a 2.6.28 kernel). Also, most function keys do work after
applying the procedure described here:

Update to FC10 kernel-2.6.27 it will recognize the card right out of the box.
I have a eeePC 701 and it works great, if you do upgrade get that madwifi drive out, or it will conflict with new driver.
