Wireless Config in Fedora 12_x86_64

Hi All

I am going to give you the steps that are needed to configure wireless Lan in the Fedora 12 64 Bit OS.
Tested on Dell Inspiron 1525
Steps are as follows

#yum install kmod-ndiswrapper
#mkdir /ndiswrapper_drivers
#cd /ndiswrapper_drivers

Now Get the drivers .inf and .sys files which you will get from the installation of wireless lan from the windows machine or click the wireless lan drivers that has been downloaded from the dell site. and Click Extract and find the .sys and inf files

Now get this file and put it in the Above directory

#cp xyydriver.inf /ndiswrapper_drivers/
#cp xyydriver.sys

Now issue below command
#ndiswrapper -i xyydriver.sys


Now you are done with drivers installation part now go to the NetworkManger and Configure the details Like SSID and DHCP ..

Once done it will show you the wireless Access Point .

Now for you reference i am attaching screen shot also

Hope this guide will help some one who need help in activating wireless lan from Linux Machine
And final thing help spread linux .
