Ok guys I am having some issues installing the drivers for my wireless card on Fedora core 4.

I am on Kernel 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.

So what are the 3 rpms that I need to get?

I installed the ipw2100-firmware-1.3-5.at.noarch.rpm but I try running the other drivers I have and they do not work.

I followed the instructions for wireless located at:http://aboyandhisdog.blogspot.com/2004/12/howto-install-fedora-core-3-linux-on.html

but whenever I run the drivers I obtained it throws a “Failed dependencies” error. Any ideas?

Also about the 1280 x 768, it seems to be working by default upon installation although the resolution looks bigger than it should, Firefox looks bigger than on XP and the icons also look bigger. Does that mean it’s not truly 1280 x 768? sorry I am a complete newbie to linux. rolleyes
