Thanks for the reply. I have a lot to digest here. I'm not as

I did do the usual ldmod's etc and establish that what I expected (HAL,
etc) was loading. If I'm reading you right, the ones I have may be out
of date and/or broken. So I should either update or roll back.
I don't mind leaving the safety of rpm's but I am not sure where to go
for source tar balls or which to get. Perhaps if you or someone out
there has madwifi working with any kernel, you can give me the specs on
your stuff and I could try making my machine comply. You already
indicated that my kernel might need upgrading.
My laptop uses an Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG (built-in) card, so I can't
help you with your wireless chipset. But you might start here:

The official madwifi site is http://www.madwifi.org/
The first time user's guide for madwifi is at...
http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo
That did it! It may have been the updated code; it may have been the
clean-it-out utilities; it may have been the newbie HOWTO. But I'm on
the air!
Many thanks, DJA!
Lan is this Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG the WiFi card you got last Saturday after
the Installfest?
For how much and where did you get it?
I need a G card to run under FC4 also...
