Fedora 7, wireless. gone back to FC6


Having used FC 6 for nearly a year now I've been very impressed. The most important thing was the wireless working really well, with a little help from fwcutter.
I was so looking forward to Fedora 7 coming out with it's improved wireless support.

So I was rather surprised after installing Fedora 7 to find that my new shine OS didn't even see my wireless card.
After a very long day trying to get the bloody think working. I decided to wait a few days to see if anything came up on the forums. So another long day trawling the forums and trying to get the wireless working, still nothing.

To solve the problem I've gone back Fedora Core 6.

Are we supposed to feel bad because you give up so easily?
FC7 has only been released 12 days ago, not every Fedora user has upgraded yet, patience is a virtue. Enjoy the beloved FC6!
