My netbook reports having a "Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)". It's currently running Ubuntu 10.04, with the proprietary broadcom drives (installed by the handy "Hardware Drivers" application). I didn't have to do any work to get it going ... just installed the driver and all was seemingly well. This is not intended as a "my distro is better than <insert other distro>" - just a data point that it worked fine for me. -- Cole Tuininga Lead Developer co...@code-energy.com _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
