Wireless Card


Hi - Decent with Linux - better with Windows (shamed to admitt) - but learning. Have a bit of an issue with a new install of Fedora (Dist. 2.6). Running it off of a Dell Precision M60 with a Dell Wireless WLAN 1450 on board. I configured a new HDD with a dual boot to XP / Linux. Everything went fine with the install, except I cannot use my Wireless under Linux. All the research I have done says that, at this point, there is no driver / solution. I am contemplatin a PCMCIA wireless card to pop in - any suggestions on a good make and model for thi Linux Distrib.

Any help would be appreciated....
Drew

I don't know much about wireless and Linux, except that it's difficult. Maybe these two links might help?
