Although the following suggestion is not for PCMCIA but for a usb dongle I have been using an Edimax EW-7318UG usb wireless adapter for some time
on an old laptop running F8. It uses the rt73usb driver that is in the current
kernels and works out of the box with no further ado. I get a solid 54Mbps
connection and have had no hassles with it at all.

If you have a spare usb port I can certainly recommend it. HTH

This is odd. I have an EW-7318UG dongle which I have tried in vain to run on F8. When I configure it I get a whole list of devices non of which is this device. If I do a lsusb I get: ID: 148f:2573 Ralink Technologies, Corp and I can't see that mentioned either. What magic have you done to make it work?
