I've posted this before and somehow it turned to a discussion for other people on selinux http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...d.php?t=525636 help me if i can,
Wireless Card on a Compaq nx6110....managed to install drivers but ehen I try bringing it up it says something like "error! cannot bring up eth1 Network not present"

Posts #4 and #7 on the other thread are attempts to answer your question. The discussion about SELinux (as I understood it) was whether it would interfere with what you were trying to do. If you find it does, I would concur that you should turn it off until you get your problem solved and then re-enable it.

Post #7 recommends you get used to the package tools (yum and rpm) from the command line rather than insisting on a graphical tool. I don't have enough experience with this to comment, although I am partial to the command line for administration.

In general, the advise on the other thread seems plausible to me, but I don't have specific experience.

Good luck.
