RT2500 wireless nic??

[Michael D. Setzer II]

Does anyone know how to get a wireless RT2500 to work?
Have a co-worker that has an old P4 notebook that has this nic for wireless. 
Long ago, I had gotten it working with a sourceforge driver, but when I 
upgraded it to Fedora 11 that method wouldn't work. I just upgraded the 
machine to Fedora 12, and I can get the machine to see wireless hubs, but it 
always fails to get an IP. 

Tried the sourceforge info again, and it fails to build. 

Seems the RT2500 is now included in later kernels, but it doesn't connect 
with the hub with the network manager, or system-config-network, or using 
wlassistant.

Thanks.
