Aloha,

I read that the kernel module ndis0 work with wireless devices.

Where do I get the original W32 driver.inf for the Broadcom 4310 wireless?

Either on a CD/DVD that came with the machine or the Broadcom Wireless LAN Driver here if yours is HP 2133 Mini-Notebook

it is a self extracting exe file so you either need to run it on a windows machine or it will work in Wine.

This is a useful page if you haven't already found it
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/config-network-setup.html

I created an ndis driver using these instructions, unfortunately it caused a panic so I couldn't use it, YMMV.

PS if you have problems extracting the files I can do them and send them off list.



Aloha Chris,

Thanks for the help.

I only have FreeBSD computers here so I havent looked at the CD that came with the Mini. It doesnt say what os it is.

It is a HP Mini 1000.

In that case you probably want to look for your exact model on this page
http://h20180.www2.hp.com/apps/Lookup?h_lang=en&h_cc=us&cc=us&h_page=hpcom&lang=en&h_client=S-A-R163-1&h_pagetype=s-002&h_query=HP+Mini+1000&submit.x=10&submit.y=9

though I checked a few and they all seemed to end up at the same driver so maybe exact model doesn't matter.

ndis wants drivers for Windows XP


It runs Linux (Ubuntu Debian Hybrid for HP)
I am working out of the office today so I will take a look at the suggested links when I get back.
