the orinoco drivers that come with FC1 have been generic enough for me to

I was able to remove this driver and use the 2.6 kernel's native
support for my card.

Can you tell exactly how you have done that? I also have a Prism2 based wireless card, and all I get are errors...

I updated my system to rawhide, and did a yum update, and rebooted to use the new 2.6 kernel. Then I did "rpm --erase linux-wlan-ng". Then using the GUI of system-config-network I added the wireless card as eth1, and clicked "active".

It was surprising painless until it didn't work ;)

Are you modules in your drivers path? You can see man modules.conf or man modprobe to understand where to put them. depmod will be ran on startup, so you should only have to put your modules in your path. You could edit modules.conf and add another PATH line if you do not want to have to copy the files into the main modules/drivers path. Those are just some suggestions.
