I cannot Mike's reply rest unanswered, and for the countless
generations to think that I am a total incompetent fool when I am only
just a fool :-)

1) The reason I installed linux was to be able to run IDL on my old PC.
Although I earn a bit more than during my grad student days, I still
prefer to waste a few days installing Linux instead of buying an OS
upgrade, or even a $500 PC.

2) I went for FC5 because that was the only way I could make my
wireless card work. The MadWiFi rpm's were compatible with the kernel.
The MadWiFi rpms for FC4 were incompatible with the kernel that I got
when I downloaded FC4. I could have compiled the MadWiFi software, but
I took what I thought was an easier route.

3) With all that said and done, thanks for the post Mike. I'll listen
to your advice.

Mirko
