I'm trying to install an ORiNOCO Classic Gold PC Card in the pcmcia adapter on Fedora core 6. I don't know where to begin, i am really a newbie. I am not sure if my PCMCIA is working first. In case it is not then how do I make it work. Moreover I don't have eth1.
I read this review about my card: "This is a great wireless card for Linux. I'm using it on a Compaq Presario 1270 with Slackware 10 Linux and it was autodetected on boot. The orinoco module is compiled into my 2.4.30 kernel along with wireless networking enabled"
Can you please help me!
I will list the output of the following:
uname -a /sbin/lsmod ps aux | grep pcmcia ls /etc/pcmcia/ lspci lspci -v ifconfig chkconfig --list pcmcia yum install pcmciautils
This is what I have:
