I'm trying to get my Broadcom 4311 b/g card to work with the native

placed the extracted firmware code in /lib/firmware and dmesg
states that it failed to load the module. Has anyone gotten this
card to work and how? Any link or pointers would be greatly
appreciated.

When starting a new thread don't just reply to a message sent by
someone else and clear the subject line. Not all e-mail and news
clients behave like yours and will thread messages correctly based
on the "Message-ID:", "In-Reply-To:" and "References:" headers
embedded in the messages. Only programs which don't comply with
Internet standards sort messages by subject and call that
"threading".
When you simply change the subject of a message, all of the threading
information remains intact and your new "thread" simply continues
at the end of the old one. This is called thread hijacking.
By doing this, you're shooting yourself in the foot twice over.
First of all, people following a thread don't want to see unrelated
messages cropping up in the middle of it. The most complacent will
just delete your message without reading it, others will killfile
you, some having complained to you asking you to learn how to post.
Secondly, those who aren't interested in the hijacked thread and
who have set their programs to ignore it won't even see your message.
If you want to start a new thread then use your mailer's/newsreader's
"New Message" function. This will start a fresh thread of your own
without any traces of previous threads.
And:
Do not post in HTML. There are several reasons why posting in HTML
is a bad idea. These links should help convince you why:
