Next issue: airport

[Ian Marlier]

Okay, got my machine up and running using the smp kernel, everything looks
good so far.  Leaving the "video=ofonly" line off of my boot config meant
that the kernel recognized the monitor, and loaded the radeonfb driver for
the video card...good things.

Next issue: I'm connected to the net via an AirPort, but I can't seem to
convince my machine to actually get it's act together on this...

I do:
Modprobe airport

And the airport, orinoco, and hermes modules are loaded into the kernel.

I do:
Iwconfig eth1 essid "<network>" enc xxxxxxxxx

And the report back is that the device doesn't exist

I added a /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1, but I get the feeling
that this method might be depreciated in the 2.6 kernel?

Anyway, help would be greatly appreciated...what do I need to do to get my
system to recognize my airport card?
