*Dear Onkar*, the b43-fwcutter package installed this time, after I skipped the option to fetch firmware. then I ran this command, and it identified the wl_apsta file but said in the end that "failed to create output directory: Permission denied". > You can check output of command 'dmesg' after few minutes to check if > firmware got loaded. If it doesn't then restart the machine. I didn't wait much but running dmesg gave the info that "Firmware file b43/ucode5.fw not found or load failed." It suggested that I use Version 4 from http://www.linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware Now I am looking at this section on the page, but I can't decide how to move forward. There are so many versions of the same procedure. Can you help? Perhaps I just need the right firmware version. How do I identify and what is the command? Also, I'm not able to understand this line: "*Note that you must adjust the FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR path to your distribution. The standard place where firmware is installed to is /lib/firmware*." (I tried restarting also, but no luck with wifi yet.) ------- -.- 1/f ))) --. ------- ... http://www.algomantra.com
