Hi Folks,

I have installed Fedora 8 on my Toshiba Tecra A10 laptop.

Main problem is with wireless card. Anyone has any idea to get the card working. Below are some info:

uname -a

[root@wavelet intelwlan]# /sbin/iwconfig

eth0 no wireless extensions.

wmaster0 no wireless extensions.

Thanks in advance.

Can you post the output of lspci please - the line with the wireless card, that is. That should point us in the right direction for drivers.

Thanks.

Sorry for the entire lspci, I am confused of wireless, which is probally:

Hi

I have installed firmware, and can see wlan0 through network manager. However, the laptop freezes if wlan0 is up. Any idea?

I appreciate your reply.

Thanks.
