Graham, thx for the comments. (sigh) there are Linux drivers on the Broadcom website =========================== Linux support for broadcomm wifi cards from Broadcom
http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php ============================= maybe this is all I need, but I'm not Linux-experienced enough to figure out whether they fit the gOS Ubuntu flavor, etc, so I'm here begging for help. --my status so far: So far tanguyr's script (thx again!) has gotten me to where I can get the google wireless detector widget to detect my local wireless network, but I can't connect via Firefox. I'm guessing that I need to manually get some wireless card info into the network app, but I'm fumbling around right now. I plead noobieness - a new os install trying to remember 20 year old Unix training after decades of windoze apps. I would read the instructions if I could find them... and I'm sure it will be "obvious" to me once I get it to work the first or second time. All help is gratefully acknowledged in advance. /d --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "gOS Linux" group.
