Thank you. I googled fwcutter and found this Ubuntu page and followed its instructions.(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper) However do I need a 2.6.17+ or can I use the bcm43xx driver on learlier kernels such as 2.6.15? Things look well but I can't test my connection because I do not know if my base station extream or the powerbook airport card just went bad :(. I may have to run to the apple store to use their wireless network to find out if it the card or the base station. Until then I can't do much. But in linux the driver did load and I can see it in iwconfig. Thanks for your help -adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
