Thinkpad R40, Prism, Orinoco

2008-06-08 Thread Marc Ferguson
Hi,

How do I uninstall/install drivers for my wireless?  I think my Prism 2/2.5
(hostap) is conflicting with 'orinoco' driver, but I don't know how to
verify it.

I have a Thinkpad R40 running Fedora 9.  I can't seem to get NetworkManager
to connect to a wireless network.  It shows all the available networks, I've
tried WEP and WEPless networks.  For WEP it'll prompt for the WEP
passphrase, it then gives me the correct WEP key, but it won't connect.  I
am totally confused - thanks for any help.

Fedora 9 and Thinkpad R40

2008-05-28 Thread Marc Ferguson
Hi,

I'm having a problem getting my new installation of Fedora 9's wireless
component to work with my Thinkpad R40.  I've been on the Fedora forums and
mailing list with no solution.  NetworkManager detects other wireless
networks (great), it even determined my 124-bit HEX from my PassPhrase, but
it WON'T connect to the network.  I tried other open wireless networks, such
as Starbucks, etc and it still didn't connect.  What could I be missing?
Thanks.

am a Windows power-user, but that doesn't really mean much when dealing with
a REAL operating system.
