Please, as the first step in trying to get wireless working on Fedora,
before you do anything else, please just try:

	service NetworkManager start

Please note that I said to try that _first_.  Specifically, "first"
does not mean "after I ran system-config-network" or "after I started
wpa_supplicant" or even "after I tried to configure things manually".
"First" means _first_.

Please?

I'm using NM on a clean system, and it works great.
I have a question, though - how can I make it work when I drop to runlevel 3? Is there some UI or some flag in its configuration that will tell it to continue working? From what I understand, the daemon starts in runlevel 3 and continues to work just fine when I change 5->3, but since it loses its internal connection to the nm-applet, it disconnects me from the network.


Thanks!
