while "su -" gives you the full root shell, as if you had logged in at the
console as root.

Excellent, thanks for that info. Here is the result of lspci:
02:02.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset (rev 01)
Subsystem: Actiontec Electronics Inc Unknown device 2406
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
Memory at f8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2
Kernel driver in use: hostap_pci
Kernel modules: orinoco_pci, hostap_pci
What can I learn from this info? Based on all the threads I'm guessing my wireless card isn't completely compatible with Fedora 9. The funny thing is everything works except for making the actual connection to a wireless network though.
