Hi Roger

This is an interesting one, and a problem I'd forgotten about.

As soon as I run system-config-network my pc plays up.  My USB keyboard and 
mouse stop working as does my LAN interface eth0.

system-config-network does see wlan0 and looks like it will configure it okay, 
but once I click on 'activate' (using the on-board touchpad) it says the 
device does not exist.

I have to reboot to get everything working again.

I also seem to remember that when I first set up the card I used 
system-config-network, and set it to start at bootup, but it failed because 
the modules were not loaded by then.
