I have it working in FC1, maybe it will compile in 2.6

If you have an ssh session I may go in an workit out.... Or maybe thru an
instant message service.

You can contact me at: wburgos@xxxxxxxxxxx (msn or email)

I did, but the driver they have is for kernel 2.4 and FC2 is 2.6.
The driver is only available in source so I would have to compile it, the
last time I tried that it made a mess of my machine and I had to reinstall
fc2. So I am a little shy of trying it since I am not a linux guru to try to
fix the mess afterwards.
