You want uname -r to give 2.6.22-rc7 try this: su - yum install bcm43xx-fwcutter wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.80.9.2.tar.bz2 tar -xjvf broadcom-wl-4.80.9.2.tar.bz2 bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/ broadcom-wl-4.80.9.2/kmod/wl_apsta.o when you set up ndiswrapper you may have blacklisted bcm43xx if so you need to remove it (edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist)
cd /usr/src yum install git git-clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-dev.git cd wireless-dev cp /boot/config-`uname -r` ./.config make mrproper make menuconfig select load alternative config file, it should sugest .config select yes then navigate to: device-drivers-->Network-device-support-->Wireless-LAN-->press space when broadcom BCM43xx is selected (an M should appear next to it, if not hit space a few more times) do the same for broadcom BCM43xx mac80211 stack. you may want to enable some debugging in the same location. press esc a few times, it will say do you want to save, select yes then on the command line again (this part will take a while): make all make modules_install make install now reboot select the new kernel at boot when grub comes up command line again: su - modprobe bcm43xx That should get u up and running, or at least to a state in which we can help. I don't know what other damage ndiswrapper may have done that you need to remove maybe someone else can way in on that. If it works, you can change /boot/grub/menu.lst so that the new kernel is default. -- Brennan Ashton Bellingham, Washington "The box said, 'Requires Windows 98 or better'.
