Ric, shame on you! Have you ever dealt with a RH list?
The Orinoco is a proprietary driver based on a nearly controllerless wireless
LAN where your software does the work. Hence the hardware is cheaper than
the "real" drivers, but no company is likely to package it for a linux
distro. You will have to download the source with its big, hidden binary and
compile it. Furthermore, it is strictly for Kernels 2.0-2.2, so you will
have to load an old kernel for RH 7.1 if they offer one.
