I have gotten all the files I needed to compile the software. I can now
use the Marvell ethernet, however when I try to connect with the Atheros
wifi it tries to connect but then comes back with the error message
network disconnected. Any one have an idea.
I tried upgrading via yum to get the latest packages but lose my video,
and get the irq 9 failed who cares.

Bit of an old thread here, but maybe someone will find the following useful:
1. Some drivers that require the 'kernel headers' need header files
from the kernel-devel package, rather than (or more likely in addition
to) kernel-headers.
2. "$ rpm -ql package-name" will list all the files provided by that package.
