allright, in fedora now.

ive started to try some of these things but have run across a few
problems...
first off when i modprobe i get an unrecognized command error...

then i attempted to install the intel wireless wifi link thing, and i
ended up here:
http://atrpms.net/dist/f7/mac80211/ [1]
and here:
http://atrpms.net/dist/f7/iwlwifi/ [2]

when i download and attempt to install the package i get the error of
a missing dependancy: 

for the mac80211:
Missing Dependency: mac80211-kmdl-9.0.0-12.fc7 is needed by package
mac80211

and for the ilwifi:
Missing Dependency: iwlwifi-kmdl-0.0.35-16.fc7 is needed by package
iwlwifi

where would i find this?

also for the ipw3945 driver the rpm doesnt list anything to install
but when run gives this dependacy error:
Missing Dependency: ipw3945-kmdl-1.2.0-18.3.fc7 is needed by package
ipw3945

the ipw3945-ucode rpm also lists nothing to install but apparently
installed successfully

the daemon installed successfuly also
then i moved on to try to installl the wifi link as described here:
http://intellinuxwireless.org/?p=iwlwifi&n=HOWTO-iwlwifi [3]

but when i get to this point:
./load debug=0x43fff
it returns:
./unload: line 23: lsmod: command not found
./unload: line 23: lsmod: command not found
./unload: line 23: lsmod: command not found
./unload: line 23: lsmod: command not found
No modules unloaded.
./load: line 23: modprobe: command not found
./load: line 23: modprobe: command not found
./load: line 23: modprobe: command not found

./load: line 28: lsmod: command not found
./load: line 28: lsmod: command not found
./load: line 49: insmod: command not found
Load failed.
and thats where im at now and i think ill let it rest for a while

hopefully that info was helpful, i tried to be as detailed as
possible
