    Running Fedora Core2 t2
    Kernel-2.6.8-1.541

    I'm trying to get a D-Link G650 wireless (laptop) adapter to be
    recognized and set it up. But finding the wireless stuff is
    different enough from normal networking stuff that I'm pretty lost
    here.

    Watching the boot messages and dmesg after, I don't really see
    anything identifiable (by me anyway) as being about the wireless
    device.

    Anyone here with wireless experience that can help?
