Wireless is working fine on my Aspire One in F10 (using GNOME and

I have the same kernel.

My output is very different - which may be the result of my various efforts to
get a driver running - whether ath5k or madwifi:
lsmod | grep ath

I don't see wpa_supplicant in there.
[root@AAO ~]# service network status
Configured devices:
lo eth0 wlan0
Currently active devices:
lo eth0 wifi0 wlan0
[root@AAO ~]# service NetworkManager status
NetworkManager (pid 2240) is running...
chkconfig --list network
network 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off
[root@AAO ~]# chkconfig --list NetworkManager
NetworkManager 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
Is 'network' running? I would have thought that 'Currently active devices:'
means that it is. If it is, why? chkconfig says it isn't being activated.

If you are running the kernel-2.6.27 the correct driver will be ath5K_pci .
If your running kernel-2.6.26 you'll have to use the madwifi driver, but
sure to blacklist the driver originally supplied by Fedora.
When kernel-2.6.27 came out it had the correct drivers fot the Atheros
wireless card 2.6.26 did not.
