wifi on Acer laptop

I just purchased an acer laptop and have it dualbooting vista and fedora 8.

The problem I'm having is that there is a switch on the front of the laptop to enable the wireless card, which works fine in Windows, but doesn't work at all in Fedora. Is there any way I can force the wireless to activate without using that switch, or to give the switch functionality in fedora?

Thanks
