I'm about to order a hp amd64 notebook zv5000z series. There are 2 choices for wireless, but not much info on what the chipsets are. Anyone know if there is any problem with FC3 on this machine?
Networking choices are:
1) 54g(TM) 802.11b/g WLAN w/ 125HSM/SpeedBooster(TM)
2) 54g(TM) Integ. Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN & Bluetooth
Hi Neal, I have a similar laptop (Compaq R3000Z) and FC3 runs very nicely on it. The Broadcom wireless does not work with the x86_64 version yet, but it seems that support should be coming soon. If you click on the "Help me decide" link on HP's website for the Wireless, it looks like the SpeedBooster is also a Broadcom chipset. You might want to check out the following list for linux on the R3000/zv5000: http://lists.pcxperience.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linuxr3000
There has been some talk recently about Linuxant having a working wrapper for the 64-bit driver. People have reported mixed sucess, but it seems the trend is that this will be fixed, at some point. If you want to run the i386 version, ndiswrapper should work just fine with the 32-bit Windows drivers.

I got an FC3-i386-DVD.iso file and checked the MD5Sum well. What I need to do next to install fedora?
I burn this iso file directly to a DVD in Windows XP environment? or i have to decompress this iso file and burn them th a DVD?
then Can i boot my computer with this DVD?
Thanks

i tried to update the kernel that was just released i get a message " Your system is fully updated. No new packages are needed"
i guess cause the kernel is usually skipped but since this is the only package i need, why won't it let me install the update ?
Which new kernel would this be? The latest one I see on updates is kernel-2.6.9-1.681 and it was posted 11/21. There's a newer one in rawhide, but unless your yum config points to rawhide, it won't get picked up.
The update program for me points to 2.6.9-1.681.
But I just got things working the way that I like and am not wanting to update the Kernel.
I just went though a business of purchasing several WiFi PCMCIA cards trying to get one to work with Linux. I finally downloaded Ndiswrapper and found out that my original US Robotics card works just fine.
Not wanting to update kernel unless I have a reason to....
