Just got my first install of voyage up on an old Dell laptop, very easy :-)
I want to drive the broadcom wireless chip, to join onto the existing wlan. I've done this under other linux' on the same hardware with ndiswrapper. But here it looks like the bcm43xx driver is the way to go :-) so far I've spotted the bcm43xx-mac80211 module, when I load this I seem to get a wlan0 device - but if I try to 'ifconfig wlan0 up' I'm told that I have no firmware. So I went to an Ubuntu feisty machine, and installed bcm43x-fwcutter, which collected firmware for me, and copied that into /lib/firmware. Now 'ifconfig wlan0 up' tells me that the fw I have is no good, and it needs version 4 code. Am I doing this right? If so, where can I get the version 4 firmware from? I don't have a Windows CD for this machine, I don't own a copy of Windows anywhere ... -jim _______________________________________________ Voyage-linux mailing list [email protected] http://list.voyage.hk/mailman/listinfo/voyage-linux
