At least, this was my experience with version 3 of the card: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=76305 Also see this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=86180 So, make sure you have the latest kernel to avoid getting those annoying errors. Updating to shrike would be a good idea too; it's not that hard. It's possible, however, that version 4 of the WPC11 card uses a different chipset and all of the above is moot; I dunno for sure. --Jeremy -- /---------------------------------------------------------------------\ | Jeremy Portzer jeremyp@xxxxxxxxx trilug.org/~jeremy | | GPG Fingerprint: 712D 77C7 AB2D 2130 989F E135 6F9F F7BC CC1A 7B92 | \---------------------------------------------------------------------/
