I can't get my airport card working on my bronze powerbook. I am running
a Netgear WGR-614 with open security. The airport card works fine under
Panther.
The card is being detected and the drivers are installed. Here is the
output from dmesg.
orinoco 0.15rc3 (David Gibson <hermes(a)gibson.dropbear.id.au>, Pavel
Roskin <proski(a)gnu.org>, et al)

And the output from lsmod.

Here is the output from iwconfig. I have put the card in managed mode
and set the essid. I have even forced the router to use channel 3 2422
mhz with no results.

Does anyone have an original airport card working under Fedora Core 4?
Any help would be appreciated.
