I swapped a USB wired nic for a PCI one last night in my Fedora
machine last night. The wireless card (Linksys WMP54G PCI) is recognized
by the machine, I see the kernel modules (rt61pci + others) loaded and I
can see in /var/log/messages that the hardware's present.
But I can't get NetworkManager to setup the card. I've rebooted the
machine and was able to get nm-connection-editor to let me create a new
connection based on the mac address of the card. But every time I try to
bring it up I get an I/O error.
I know the card works: I took it from a machine that was working
perfectly on the network. But I'm not sure of how to proceed with
getting the card configured in an already setup machine.
Any recommendations are appreciated.
