Problems with hostap and missing wlan0 on Fedora 5

[Per Weisteen]

Hi

Somehow I've managed to remove the wlan0 device from my Fedora 5
installation. I'm not sure if this happened during my attempt to define
correct parameters for the wifi0 device and me actually removing the
wlan0 device intentionally or if it happended during the first yum based
upgrade. Since on my old 2.4 kernel I only had a wifi0 I didn't check
the README info on how the new hostap module actually generated two
devices. Anyhow, I now need some help in defining the wlan0 device
because it doesn't turn up any more.

modprobe.conf

alias eth0 3c59x
alias eth1 e100
alias scsi_hostadapter sym53c8xx
alias eth2 hisax
alias wifi0 hostap_pci
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
options snd-card-0 index=0 
options snd-via82xx index=0 
remove snd-via82xx { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; };
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-via82xx


The relevant info from lsmod are :
