Ok guys, I have found the problem!
There may be something in the kernel version I was using that blocks that
driver from working.
For my wireless card to work I had to downgrade kernel and kmod-wl versions,
to the following:
> [skorzen at g62 ~]$ uname -r
> 2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.x86_64
>
Maybe in the future this problem is solved.
Best regards,
Bruno Martins
