This worked on FC4 and FC5-T3 but the system-config-network app can't "see" wlan0 with the latest distro. Additionally the ndiswrapper.ko module isn't getting loaded at boot time. I have it working through a script in rc5.d so I don't think it is a physical issue -- does anyone have any suggestions? Also, is there a reason that the kernel-devel RPM isn't on the distro? Having to go find that made the install experience a little less than optimal for me. Thanks -gc </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap="">why not using livna's ndiswrapper-packages? HTH Roger </pre> </blockquote> Sorry for top-posting my earlier message. I did install the packages from livna, with the same results. For grins and giggles I copied all the files in the /etc/sysconfig/networking and network-scripts trees from my FC4 root partition into my FC5 root partition. I don't know what application is responsible for creating these files and scripts but once I put them in place manually the system-config-network application was able to be used to deactivate eth0 and activate wlan0 at boot time. I haven't had to do this with prior releases, in fact I didn't have this problem with the test 3 distro, so I thought I should make the community aware in case there is a bug out there somewhere. -gc </body> </html>
