I have a Card Reader, Integrated Webcam and a Atheros Wifi Card in this laptop. I have currently installed Fedora 7 from Live CD. None of the above hardware seems to be working. I installed Madwifi as I came to know from Googling that the same supports all Atheros based Wifi Cards. The Atheros Chips is AR5006EG. Today, I have downloaded the FC7 DVD ISO Image will be burning the same tonite and reinstalling the same. Request your setp by step directions in configuring the Atheros Card. I am a newbie to Linux, but have been a fan of Fedora for sometime know. I just hope that I am not forced to by Windows Vistas just to make my Hardwares work, importantly the Wifi card, as I do not have any other option of connectivity. All guidance is highly apperciated. Warm regards, Sriram <hr size="1px" noshade style="clear:both;margin-top:10px;height:1px;"> <div style="font:12px Verdana,sans-serif;color:Black;background:white;padding:3px;line-height:1.3em"> Get Free 5GB Email – Check out spam free email with many cool features!
