Description The Source 2007-05-03 09:42:22 UTC
Description of problem:
My ORIENT wifi adapter is not listed in system-config-network, so I pick other
card. The driver (zd1211rw) is present in my system and I can properly configure
network by calling ifconfig and iwconfig. But if I try to do the same thing with
this utility, network does not work properly. Does it forces drivers to be
loaded after I choose card type? It is very bad if it does. Nobody asked it to
do so.

1.3.96-1.fc6

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen thus bug against that version.
