Yaaahoooo problem solved. i downloaded the driver from the website, then install GCC and Kernal-devel as these are pre-requisites of driver setup. then install driver using rpm.

1)- but still now when i boot system. it starts in text mode, i have to give command startx to go to gui. is there a way that on rebooting it directly goes to gui interface.

2)- when desktop comes there are no buttons of shutdown/restart in the menu. can any one guide me from where to bring them

PROFILE-MANAGER(1)					      General Commands Manual						PROFILE-MANAGER(1)

NAME
profile-manager - starts the gui for configuring the metadata used by desktop-profiles SYNOPSIS
profile-manager DESCRIPTION
The desktop profiles package needs metadata about the available profiles in order to decide when to activate which profiles. This metadata is contained in the .listing files placed in the /etc/desktop-profiles directory. This convenience script will start a graphical interface for configuring that metadata. The gui is a kommander script, so you need to have the kommander package installed for the gui to work (the script will check if the neces- sary prerequisites are present, and tell you what's missing if necessary). OPTIONS
There are no options FILES
/etc/desktop-profiles/*.listing - Files containing the metadata about installed profiles BUGS
The gui currently barks at profile metadata containing a single quote in the description. AUTHOR
