Wireless card is recognized, but how do I make it work/activate it?
Hi. This is pretty much my first time using Linux (I just installed FC 5), so the problem might be really simple. I'm using a laptop (Dell Inspiron 6000) with an internal wireless card (Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG).
When I go to Network Configuration and then the Hardware tab, I can see my card as eth1 so I know it's recognized by FC. It does not show up under the Devices tab, though.
As far as I know, the wireless network doesn't require anything special; I've been using for years and it doesn't require a password or anything.
Let me know if there's any other information that would be useful. Please keep in mind that I've never really done anything with Linux before -- it would be helpful if your comments were at a most basic level.
Thanks for the help.
