[Coco] Fedora Core 6 on a M305CRV Gateway laptop

Here's a page showing the possible chipsets in my USB dongle.

This page possibly has the driver(s) to support it?

I might be lost trying to actually add this to my Linux install if it 
requires recompiling the kernel or something.  Oh boy.  I might be 
better off just looking for a used distro-supported USB dongle on 
Ebay, or get a PCMIA card.

However, Fedora Core 6 installed perfectly on my laptop and is 
running just fine right now.  The video updating is actually faster 
than on my desktop computer that is down.  When I turned on desktop 
effects on the laptop and tried the multiple-desktop-cube rotating 
feature, it spins pretty quick.  Oh... the video is stuck at 
800x640.  I've seen that issue already so I knew I'd be dealing with 
that, but it's not really a problem and might even help with my 
remote desktop sessions since all of the desktop will fit in a window 
under Vista without scaling it down under tightvnc.

The coolest thing I played with so far on my desktop box was bringing 
up the Firefox browser under Linux and visiting pages, while showing 
it on my Vista computer in a window.
