I've installed Fedora C3 on my ibm t30 laptop. The wlan card in the laptop is based on prism 2 chipset. With 'orinoco_pci' driver from the system, the wireless card can associate with AP and communicate with other hosts. But the card cannot scan the channel with 'iwlist'. So I start to try other drivers. I download and install the hostap driver. But I find that even after I do 'modprobe hostap_pci' to load the hostap module, the wireless interface still keep using the 'orinoco_pci' driver.

My question is:
1. How to make a hardware to use a dedicated driver among multiple drivers.
2. Where to check if a module has been compiled into the kernel?

Thanks

I don't know if it's like Mandrake, but you might check in /etc/modprobe.conf to see if there are two entries there.
