Wireless communications.

[Bill Marcum]

Hi all,
I just started using Fedora / linux and I am having an issue with 
wireless communication. I installed Fedora 8 on my laptop; I have 
installed all of the updates available to this point. I am using an old 
Dell Latitude Laptop with a cisco systems wireless card. It works fine 
with widows it just doesn't seem to want to connect when I log into 
Fedora. I am probably missing something but I don't know what it is. The 
error that I am getting when I try to activate the card is that it is an 
invalid argument (8b06). One of the things that I am not sure about is 
how do I choose the type of wireless security I am using? The cables 
side of the network system works fine.

I am very familiar with wireless communications and I am pretty 
knowledgeable about the windows software but any help you can provide 
would be greatly appreciated.
