Cool Wireless on Asus Laptop - do I need drivers

Hi Folks,

I've got Fedora 5 setup on my Asus laptop (A6Km) which is all great, the 'normal' network adapter is fine (I'm using it now!) and it detects the wireless adapter hardware ok, so I wonder, do I need additional drivers to get this to work?

lspci looks like this,
Code:
00:09.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
The standard network tools look like they'll let me setup my network but it fails to initialise eth1 ("no link, check cable etc"). So I'm not sure if its the driver (missing?) or something else? I wanted to check before getting stuck into ndiwrapper perhaps needlessly.

Any suggestions greatly appreicated, thanks all,
Toby
