Dave:
I have a Linksys WMP11 wireless PCI card that I amFirst you should check which version of the card you have (as the various versions have different chip sets and therefore require different drivers), then you can go to http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php or http://www.linuxant.com and check whether your version of the card is supported. I believe there is no open source implementation of a driver available for the WMP11. You may want to return it and exchange it for a WMP54G Version 4 for which an open source driver is being developed, see: http://www.ralinktech.com/supp-1.htm and http://rt2400.sourceforge.net .
trying to get to work with Fedora Core 2. What steps
do I need to take to get this card to work? I have
searched this list and found some hints, but no
definitive answers as to if this card can work or not.
I have found that Fedora "sees" the card because it
appears in /etc/sysconfig/hwconfig.
Generally, before buying hardware for Linux it makes sense to make sure an open source driver exists as this causes the least troubles getting the hardware to work.
Best regards,
Erwin
