You need to install Madwifi.

It comes in rpms also,
You can download from http://atrpms.net/dist/el4/madwifi/

download and install first three RPMS listed there and hopefully your card should appear in "system-config-network" ie. type that on command line and it willl come up with a wizard to setup your network hardware of ur PC.
