I have had my Dell Inspiron 8600 running Fedora, and it has been fine using a wired ethernet connection. As the internal 802.11b is not natively supported by Fedora (yet) I fell back to the reliable Orinoco silver PCMCIA card I have been using for 3 years (RH 6.1 -> 9). However, about 80% of the time I boot with the Orinoco card, the boot process hangs just before GDM start, and nothing responds (virtual terms etc.) until I pop the card out and push it back in, then all is well. The card worked 100% reliably in my previous Toshiba laptop running RH9. Also, after a number of hours, the wireless card's interface drops, and again, popping the card out then in fixes it. Any thoughts appreciated. Cheers, Ben
