Hi,
I am a very new linux user and I finally got XP and FC2 to play together on a dual boot. Now I am having two small problems with fedora. 1) I am using a dell USB wireless reciever that just plugs in and connects me to the internet getting the signal from a wireless router in my roommates room. When I use the internet config wizard it doesnt seem to find it or have any option for me to use so that I can connect. Am I missing something or do I need to pick some other choice? I am really new to this so I didnt know what to do or pick....
2) When I run the sound card test I hear the test sound out of my speakers fine, but when I play a CD through gnome CD, nothing comes out.... Do I need to fix something before I play CDs? Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance
Charles

I'll pretty much say the same as you guys have... about the USB device, try submitting alittle bit more information, what does /sbin/lsusb say? (you don't have to be root for this), if you can, submit /sbin/lsusb -v as root.
About the sound issue, what's the soundchip you have?? Apparently this is a common issue with some models of i810 soundchips, but vary from person to person. Secondly I'd *strongly* suggest you update ALSA to a newer version, since the one in FC2 is *quite* outdated, and things have changed SO MUCH from the ALSA 1.0.3 days. You may google around for some rpms, you can check http://tettnang.freshrpms.net, though my *personal*suggestion would be to install it directly from the alsa-project site, but that's just me (been running alsa-project's packages since version 0.90 and on RH 9, FC1, 2 & 3).
