You would have to get it from another repository however. Thanks Rahul - I have been using the older driver with proprietary daemon in FC6 for quite a while and it has been great. When the 2.6.22 kernel came in for FC6 I did manage to get the new driver going but only by leaving the interface definition with "onboot=no" and adding a line to rc.local to start the interface. I also had to blacklist iwl3945 to get it working with this method which is not satisfactory - it is quite possible that other parts of the system are more up to date in F7 and that it will work with the Samsung hardware in this machine - maybe I will just have to bite the bullet and try! However it is my wife's machine and she relies on it just working on bootup - so I had better be sure it works before taking it offline for install! _______________________________________________ Fedora-laptop-list mailing list Fedora-laptop-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-laptop-list
