git the wireless dev git-pull git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-dev.git/ compile with b43 not the b43legacy get the newer fwcutter from the cvs on the bcm43xx page get the firmware from here http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.80.53.0.tar.bz2 and extract it with fwcutter sorry for be sort of vague but i have given these directions in various detail various times you can find more in the archives if you need it. Fedora 7 has given me and others some greef in the past getting it to work, i found F6 more cooperative. > > ( And here I don't mean a ndiswrapper ) > > ----------------------- > > My last question had to do with kernel configuration for including a driver > for the 4311 or as Vista seem to identify it: 4312. > What needs to be done ? > > > //ARNE > > - hope this will clear up the issues. > > > > ________________________________ > Got a little couch potato? > Check out fun summer activities for kids. > > > _______________________________________________ > Bcm43xx-dev mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev > > -- Brennan Ashton Bellingham, Washington "The box said, 'Requires Windows XP or better'.
