Fedora Core 6 review (Software In Review)Fedora Core 6 review (Software In Review)Posted Nov 9, 2006 14:49 UTC (Thu) by salimma (subscriber, #34460)In reply to: Fedora Core 6 review (Software In Review) by russell Parent article: Fedora Core 6 review (Software In Review)
For binary drivers in general, if you get it from a third-party repo, you normally have to hold off your kernel upgrade only for a couple of days, until they have a corresponding version.
For ipw3945 in particular, there are repos out there that uses dkms to package it, so when you boot a new kernel it will automatically recompile the driver's kernel interface for that. Not giving any direct link, but searching for dkms-ipw3945 might help.

Fedora Core 6 review (Software In Review) Posted Nov 9, 2006 18:49 UTC (Thu) by smoogen (subscriber, #97) [Link] I will say freshrpms is the BEST for getting ipw3945 stuff for your system. I put a dkms module and the regulatory daemon on and it worked.. had to change my kernel and bang dkms rebuilt the daemon for me and all was well.
