hey guys... the original poster was/is simply trying to get his damm wireless to work. in my opinion, not a really difficult question to ask. if you want linux/fedora to really grow, you have to expect that there will be questions that you as the person replying might consider to to be really basic.. so get off your horse and help with complete answers if you have them, or don't. but unless you know for a fact that the person submitting the request has a habit of expecting to be spoonfed simple answers, give him a break. last i checked, the purpose of the email list was/is supposed to be for helping, not for slamming.. the fact is, setting up a wireless connection on fedora/linux isn't just plug/play. in fact, if you don't know what you're doing, you can easily get lost. so, i'm sure the guy was/is looking for detailed instructions on how to get his connection working. if anyone has this kind of information, i'm sure he would appreciate it. but a one or two word answer, or a sarcastic comment isn't going to help him... peace.. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Thierry Sayegh De Bellis Sent: Friday, December 01, 2006 3:12 PM To: For users of Fedora Subject: Re: Linksys PCMCIA Linux Driver Chethiya K Ranaweera wrote: > > What is orinoco?

Snarky comments aside, a simple search in your favorite web search engine for linux+orinoco returns enough results to keep you busy for a few hours. Add fedora to the search string and you get even more. Please read http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines?action=show&; redirect=MailinglistGuidelines Do your own research and then feel free to ask for help but don't expect others to do _your_ work for you. You will find out that a lot of people will give you pointers to the answer rather than the actual full MO. amongst the results you will get http://www.nongnu.org/orinoco/ use the fedora forums, chances are someone else has been through the same path before you. hth T. -- (o< Thierry Sayegh De Bellis, RHCE //\ http://glossolalie.com V_/_ Fingerprint: 9976 11FE D9C6 8C67 6242 7BB1 6466 3F1D 56ED 7D5A -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
