You will probably do better if you install compat-wireless-old. See http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download/compat-wireless-old There may be a deb package for Lenny. If so, I didn't find it with a quick look; however, http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=65376 shows what to do to build the package. Everything else looks OK; however, your interface was unable to use DHCP to get an IP address. It appears that TX is messed up. _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
