HOWEVER, there is a "gotcha" you should know about. I do not know where the exact problem is, however... The is an issue with this combination of this laptop with the WPC54G NIC as it relates to ACPI. Linuxant has not been able to solve them and I am to green to do so. This is the whole reason I am still on FC2 with kernel 2.6.5-1.358. The problem does not go away with the default install of FC3. I am hoping 2.6.10 solve eliminates the conflict. Now, with that said, there is a VERY good chance it is the laptop considering that it is several years old. I have a Presario CM2110 laptop that I will probably install FC3 on today, using the WPC54G, to try and eliminate the card from the equation (which is about as much I know how to do at this stage with Linux). I'll let you know how it goes. Other than this, the WPC54G is great. It was easier to install on FC2 than it was on a Windows box. R/S Ryan
