hi ,
i just finished installing Cent OS 5.2 x64 on my thankpad my hardware list shows the following
Atheros Communications Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC
but when im trying to set up wireless network i cannot find the appropriate wifi card.. when adding wifi connection pls help
I believe the madwifi driver is what you need. madwifi is what I use for my Atheros based wifi card -
Atheros Communications Inc. Atheros AR5001X+ Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
It's a different model than yours. I build the driver myself, I don't know what repos have it prebuilt but I suspect rpmforge probably would.
