I didn't see you specify which HP laptop model you purchased. Here however is a full howto on how to get 64bit gentoo working on the zv6000 series which has pretty much the same broadcom card as the other newer HP laptops. It only works with NDIS wrapper and the windows 64bit driver. The guide includes a link to the Broadcom 64bit Windows driver download.
