It works just as well as the previous version I had installed (1:28-2.fc7). This is on a Development install, updated as of the afternoon of May 13 (pacific time). My workstation hardware is based on a Core2 Duo E6600 (x86_64 only, no multilib), using a "2Wire Wireless PC Card Version 01.01" PCMCIA card (a rebranded Prism2, using the orinoco_cs kernel driver). It's connected via a "Ricoh Co Ltd RL5c475 (rev 80)" PCI cardbus (using the yenta_socket kernel driver). My network is a simple SO/HO 802.11b router using WEP. Scanning, association, and encryption all seem to work as they should. The system-config-network configuration is holding well. If it's relevant to this discussion, I don't use NetworkManager at all, since the network setup is mostly static. (Though on second thought, I probably would if it would accept my WEP key... but that's a problem for another day. ^_^) Hope that helps. -- Peter Gordon (codergeek42) / FSF & EFF Member GnuPG Public Key ID: 0xFFC19479 / Fingerprint: DD68 A414 56BD 6368 D957 9666 4268 CB7A FFC1 9479 Blog: http://thecodergeek.com/blog/ About: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PeterGordon
