I'm guessing that you don't have the firmware files installed. Your machine is an Apple so things may be different, but with PCs, you need to extract the firmware from the Windows drivers of the wireless card (or download extracted firmware from the web). See http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop/2007/05/msg00055.html Also, sending the same message to several mailing lists at the same time is usually not considered good practice. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
