Well, lately mostly I'm using KNOPPIX (which is based on Debian).
I use/prefer Avaya, Orinoco, and WaveLan cards. I have Avaya APs, Orinoco
RGs, and a mix of PCMCIA cards for clients. For Windoze clients, best
thing is the USB client, but that won't work w/ Linux, you need a good
PCI-PCMCIA bridge card for a desktop.
All my cards show as eth#, but that's because I use the orinoco w/ hermes
drivers. If you use other drivers you may get other devices (like wlan0).
Have you checked for a new eth# device under RH?
Ciao,
David A. Bandel
