Can you help please? I am a Linux newbie and am trying to get my wireless
working on my Compaq nc6000 laptop which is using an Atheros chipset. I am
using Fedora Core 5. You will need to be very specific as today was my
first experience of Linux, so I really am a "very newbie" ;-) Many thanks
for any help you can provide...
I get the following error message when I run the
"madwifi-0.9.6.0-20.rhfc5.at.i386.rpm" file from
http://atrpms.net/dist/fc5/madwifi
"Error resolving dependencies. Missing Dependency: madwifi-
kmdl-0.9.6.0-20.rhfc5.at is needed by package madwifi".
My Fedora Core 5 kernel version is as follows (output from uname -a):
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5 #1 Tue Mar 28 03:38:34 EST
2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
Here is the output from /sbin/lspci:
