[CentOS-docs] article for consideration, Atheros 5007EG wireless card
I have a page where I document getting the increasingly popular AR5007EG Atheros wireless card working. (This is the card used in the Asus EEE PC). The current article covers several distributions, but would be modified to just cover CentOS. It does, however, involve getting third party software, as the rpmforge repos don't have the necessary drivers. (Apparently, it's a bit of a special case, and hasn't yet been merged into MadWifi trunk. (Additionally, though not relevant to this article, some of the later Ubuntu and Fedora alpha version kernels are requiring special patches). Therefore, it's been suggested on the forums that it might be a helpful addition to Dag Wier's article on Atheros cards. I would like to give it its own page, however, as part of the reason that the article has been helpful to many people (judging by forum posts and personal emails) is the fact that it goes into great detail, and as such, doesn't really fit with the current Wiki laptop article. Perhaps, if it's accepted, after it was finished, a link could be put to it from the wireless section of the laptop article. My thought is that it could go somewhere under http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless My wiki username is ScottRobbins The original, as yet unmodified article is at http://home.nyc.rr.com/computertaijutsu/rhwireless.html#5007 As I can't resist repeating this, and it should give Akemi-san, Alan, and Ned a snicker, an unsolicited testimonial on the CentOS forums said, This was the best, most comprehensive webpage I have seen thus far on the subject. I am now comfortably sitting in bed working on this, which is better than being tethered to the wall!!! (If I were making reviews for an advertisement, I would have just ended the quote at, most comprehensive webpage I have seen... ):) Thank you for your consideration -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Oz: So, do you steal weapons from the Army often?
