This equipment just shipped in. I have also installed more memory on it,
so that it actually boasts 768 MB of RAM, not merely the 256-MB of RAM
that is hard-wired into it. It also has a 40-GB HDD, so I don't
anticipate a problem with space.
I have heard a lot of contradictory statements about the prospects of
getting FC4 to work on equipment of this type.
Two issues:
1. Has anyone any experience installing FC4 on this model (Dell Inspiron
1200) at all?
2. Exactly how do I install the MADWiFi drivers and kernel module? I
specifically bought the NetGear WAG511 because it has an Atheros
chipset, which MADWiFi is supposed to recognize. But I haven't found any
decent instructions on how to install MADWiFi drivers and kernel modules
from RPM packages.
Any assistance, even with research, would be appreciated.
