Hi Friends.
I am new to Fedora and this is the first distro where my Asus PCI wireless card has not been recognised out of the box. For the most part I use wired but it is always nice to have wireless.
I have an ASUS PCE-N15 wireless adopter card and below are the details of the machine and the Make error that I receive when I try to build the drivers from the Asus website.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
