Linksys wireless USB adapter with FC5

I recently migrated an "old" Windows XP box (Compaq deskpro, 200MB, IGB) that was networked wirelessly with a Linksys Wireless B USB network adapter (802.11b) and had a USB printer (Dell720 photo) printer, to FC5 (2.6.16-1.2054). The non-wireless ethernet card inside the box is detected ok (eth0) and the dell printer is detected (though without a good driver).

Most importantly FC5 is not able to detect my wireless network adapter (USB). I have also tried starting Network manager but that doesnt find the wireless network. I haven't setup my router near this box either to run a wire to it :-(

Any ideas what drivers, rpms, I should install here to make this detect my wireless network ?

Any suggestions are appreciated.
