This is just about the only issue i have with linux right now, which is preventing me from ditching windows entirely
I use Network Manager to create an Ad-Hoc setup, no security, dhcp, all the simple stuff. Theres just no button or anything to connect to it
The internet guide i found said create the network and then use network manager to "connect to a hidden network". No success, not even the wifi attempting to connect when i manually type the SSID of my adhoc.
Other than Ad-Hoc, wifi connections are super easy and fast, click any access point i find and type a password "tada!" Internet.
Any ideas to help this Ad-Hoc issue so i can finally kick the windows habit? 
Maybe this info will help:
atheros 9285 wifi adapter (ath9k driver)
Linux 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.i686
KDE 4.5.4
Network Manager 0.8.1-10
Ad-Hoc wont start in F14
Linear Mode
