Sorry. No offense intended. I clearly need to not treat this as email. I'll

The system recognizes that an mmc card has been inserted. The driver doesn't
see the module, however. Looking at the page
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/brcm80211
suggests that I simply need to move to a newer Linux kernel as I am using
3.14.38. NXP recently posted a 4.1.15 install so I will try getting the 43341
module up and running with that.

I was able to scan with iw and join a WPA2 protected network using
wpa_supplicant. It would appear that I have the 43362 up and running with the
brcmfmac driver. I will try the other Linux install for the 43341.
Thank you all for all your help. It is much appreciated. :-)
