Well due to the need to get something going on
short notice I found a web page that was very good
on how to get the LinkSys WPC11 v3 going on RH 8.
I purchased the LinkSys WPC11 v3, installed it and
followed the instructions at:
www.saragossa.net/LinuxG3/ls-wlan.shtml
and the device was up and running in just a few
minutes allowing me to cut the wire and walk off,
look, no wires!
There is one text file "hermes.conf" that you have
to create, and you have to load the modules but it
is no big deal. I did see a error message when I
shut down X saying that one of the files was older
than the present version, but I did not see any
improper behaviour.
