HEEEEEELLLLPPPP !!! New to Unix ....

[baytimur]

I am a computer engineer who graduated in 1983.  Did systems 
programming/networking/tech support on mainframes pc's etc all these years

I resisted the call of Unix all these years, but now I am bored with 
everything, and that left Linux/Fedora to play with ....

I got core 3 and installed it, but of course it does not recognize my 
Morotola wireless card ! What a surprise :)

I found out on google that I could probably use ndiswrapper, and the .inf 
file from the windows XP installation cd for the card, but could not get it 
to work. Of course I can't, I do not know much about linux at all, have no 
idea where to tar the ndiswrapper, how make file works etc etc. I do know 
the theory, but that is all ....

Can somebody help me get my wireless card working please so I can switch 
over to Fedora and start learning ? I am hunting for a linux for total 
morons book for people like myself in the meantime. But that book is not 
going to help me get that card working ...

Thanks for your time, if you can help me ....
