About 5 years ago, I had to install a wireless card in my tower, and it's an ATH9xx, I *think* - I can check this evening, if that's relevant. I was running SuSE, and had to find drivers from madwifi. A few minutes of googling found... http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k/RHEL5, where the module's been backported to RHEL5.
Golly !
I'm a Linux novice (started last June). Can I literally install one of those rpm on the laptop and that should, hopefully, cure everything ?
Thank you very much. I would prefer a Centos solution and then everything is the same O/S and simpler to maintain.
Thank you.
Best regards,
