Hi folks.

I'm relatively new to Linux and want to do the switch over from the
coporate OS. I recently purchased a Compaq Presario V2575 laptop that
has a 54g 802.11b/g wireless card, and did a Workstation install of
Fedora Core 4.

I was able to get almost everything working on the system right off the
initial install, but I'm stumped on how to get the wireless working.
Obviously this is really inhibiting my switchover.

Might anyone have any tips or a walk-through handy that would help me
out in enabling this card on my computer?

Thanks in advance,

ryth

Ndiswrapper may work for you. It did for me, when I setup my Acer Aspire
3002LCi laptop with FC4 (recently upgraded to FC5)
