Actually I downloaded the firmware and put it in /lib/firmware... But I have no idea what to do with it. I'm rebuilding the entire system at the moment because I tried installing packages containing drivers and for some reason installed madwifi. Anyway, I'll finish that tomorrow (my exams finish then lol). What do I do once I have a pristine LFS system? Do I compile the driver in the Kernel or do I compile modules separately? -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
