There's a 2.6.24.2 kernel in F8 updates-testing, if you feel like trying a 2.6.24 kernel. yum --enablerepo=updates-testing upgrade kernel > I would LOVE to try the b43 driver (which is the newest on the block) > but I can't find a b43_fwcutter (just a bcm43xx_fwcutter), so I can't > extract/create the necessary 'bcm43xx_microcode5.fw' file (or its > b43 equivalent). It went into rawhide just recently. http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/x86_64/os/Packages/b43-fwcutter-011-3.fc9.x86_64.rpm Or 'yum --enablerepo=development install b43-fwcutter'. -- Jarod Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
