Hi Max, I have a Compaq laptop also.I've never set it up for wireless so I decided to give it a shot. I happen to run ck-sources at the moment. Interesting results:
flash linux # ndiswrapper -l Installed ndis drivers: bcmwl5a driver present, hardware present flash linux # lsmod | grep ndis flash linux # modprobe ndiswrapper FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.11-ck4/misc/ndiswrapper.ko): Operation not permitted flash linux # flash linux # lspci | grep 306 0000:02:02.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03) So I've got the right drivers, and the drivers recognize the BCM4306 (I assumes it's actually the same as the 94306...) but the ndiswrapper driver isn't loaded and I cannot load it with this kernel.
