Hello everyone,

I have just bought Dell Inspiron M501R AMD Phenom Quad Core, which was
bundled with windows7 where all the features are working fine. I then
installed Fedora 14 64 bit on a partition and now i am not able to connect
to wifi.

I used the command  lspci -vnn and at the end it shows the following, does
this output means the drivers of the wlan card is not installed.
