I have recently purchased a Acer Laptop Aspire 5573 in India, Chennai without the OS.
I have a Card Reader, Integrated Webcam and a Atheros Wifi Card in this laptop.
I have currently installed Fedora 7 from Live CD. None of the above hardware seems to be working. I installed Madwifi as I came to know from Googling that the same supports all Atheros based Wifi Cards.
The Atheros Chips is AR5006EG. Today, I have downloaded the FC7 DVD ISO Image will be burning the same tonite and reinstalling the same.
Request your setp by step directions in configuring the Atheros Card.
I am a newbie to Linux, but have been a fan of Fedora for sometime know.
I just hope that I am not forced to by Windows Vistas just to make my Hardwares work, importantly the Wifi card, as I do not have any other option of connectivity.
All guidance is highly apperciated.
Warm regards, Sriram
