Fedora 9: WPC 11 v3 (ver 3)

Should use the orinoco_cs driver (works in F13).
/sbin/lspcmcia
Socket 0 Bridge: [yenta_cardbus] (bus ID: 0000:02:01.0)
Socket 0 Device 0: [orinoco_cs] (bus ID: 0.0)
Socket 1 Bridge: [yenta_cardbus] (bus ID: 0000:02:01.1)


manually bring it up, and other useful commands (as root)
ifup eth0
iwconfig eth0
iwlist eth0 scan


I found fedora 9 is somewhat slow on this dell inspiron 8200 pentium 4 1.8G. (This is related to nv driver issue I found later, see my other post here for detail).

Both orinoco_cs and hostap_cs driver works in Fedora 13. But either works in Fedora 14. As of kernel 2.6.35.1 (in Fedora 14), prism chipset is disabled by default for orinoco_cs. So the card will not work.

hostap driver crashes in 2.6.35 kernel:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context
at kernel/mutex.c:94
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=643758

My solution right now for Fedora 14 is using a Fedora 13 kernel.
