Kernel is vmlinuz 2.6.18.1.2798 fc
The wireless is an on board device that is activated by pressing a button.
My laptop is a HP Compaq nx6110
Driver is Intel Pro 2200BG

If you look through dmesg, the answer is there. The device failed to load the firmware.
Use yum and search for the ipw2200 firmware and install via yum.
Then lsmod | grep ipw
The above will return the kernel module that needs to be unloaded.
rmmod ipw2200 <off the top of my head>
Then issue modprobe ipw2200
Check dmesg again to see if the firmware loaded correctly.

Sorry, its definately wise to turn off selinux. It will only get in the way. Reinstate it when you know what/how to do set the selinux parameters(which I don't, I just turn it off)

There is a GUI for yum called yum extender. If you want to query packages that may have/have not installed on your system
as root rpm -qa | grep <package>
will return the package if installed.
rpm is a powerful tool, but its best to get used to yum on the command line. For instance, if you download an rpm, then try to install it rpm -ivh <path to package> you may possibly get errors called dependencies. However, if you use yum, yum localinstall <path to package> , yum will automatically solve the dependencies and tell you what is required to do.
Google rpm & yum.

bad idea



Try the button for wireless on your lappy. Sometimes I bump into mine and it turns off the wireless radio off.

try ntsysv then dissable it from the menu (Make sure that the * isn't next to SELinux). This prevents it from running on startup

i had a similar problem but after reading the posts in this thread and others i got my wireless to work! thanks to everyone from a
Now i have this other problem. i can access wireless networks using my local account but can't using my AD account. how can i get my AD account to access the wireless networks? they don't even show up as available networks? and kinda off topic, i have no sound with my AD account but local account works. i know i have to add the account to audio group but how can i do that with AD account?
thanks in advance.

PS
i am using my work laptop so it was a huge breakthrough for me to be able to login using my AD account. this way i can use linux all day and will make my switch from windoze to linux alot easier. and could help in selling the idea of open source apps/os to decision makers here at work
thanks for all the help and great info out there!
