If you mean the 2.6.27-x kernels, you are correct, you will not need MadWifi drivers, though you might have to manually insert the ath5k module. However, at least one other person, as well as myself, had the following experience with F10 and the Aspire One, which uses the same AR5007EG card. (I'm not really familiar with the Asus line. I assume the 4 gig surf is one of the earlier ones with that card. The newest 901 and 1000 use a Realtek card.) The card would be recognized, but would only work with unencrypted networks with the live CD. We had to upgrade the kernel before it would work properly. For what it's worth, though I've had no trouble with the builtin 2.6.27 ath5k driver after the upgrade, some people on the Aspire One forums have found, with Ubuntu at least, that though it would sometimes work, they were better off still using the latest MadWifi snapshots. However, with the 2.6.27 kernels, this shouldn't be necessary. So, you might try that if all else fails. I have a page on it that some folks have found helpful, which goes through the steps of installing the MadWifi drivers (though the page mentions that I haven't found it necessary with 2.6.27) at http://home.nyc.rr.com/computertaijutsu/rhwireless.html#5007 (Although I haven't yet found what sysctl values replace the old ones that got the LED to work. In the 2.6.26 kernels it was dev.wifi.ledpin and dev.wifi.softled.) -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Adam: You failed me.
