Harald, at bootup, kudzu picks up the device with no apparent error.

The problem might be the DeviceID. One patch I found says that the following makes it work: --- linux-2.4.20/drivers/net/wireless/orinoco_pci.c.orig 2003-05-21 11:40:59.000000000 -0400 +++ linux-2.4.20/drivers/net/wireless/orinoco_pci.c 2003-05-21 11:41:52.000000000 -0400 @@ -359,6 +359,7 @@ } static struct pci_device_id orinoco_pci_pci_id_table[] __devinitdata = { + {0x1260, 0x3872, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID,}, {0x1260, 0x3873, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID,}, {0,}, };
ok, then I'll reassign to component kernel
From comment #2: 158 vendorId: 1260 159 deviceId: 3873 ^^^^ 160 subVendorId: 1468 161 subDeviceId: 0201 I don't see how this patch can improve things.
orinoco support is still missing from fedora 095.
The kernel driver already has the ID for this NIC. Have you tried modprobe instead of insmod (this pulls in other modules that orinoco may be dependant on)
closing due to inactivity.
