Hello, Michael.
You might find this useful when you're setting up wireless networking:
aptitude install wifi-radar
If your hardware isn't supported directly use:
aptitude install ndiswrapper-utils
I'm connected to my BT home-hub using a WiFi connection running Ubuntu
6.06.1 LTS on my HP Pavillion dv5000 laptop, using the 'ndis' wrapper
for the Broadcom Windows driver I got off the HP Windows installation:
ndiswrapper -l
Installed ndis drivers:
bcmwl5 driver present, hardware present
I'd be interested to hear from anyone who's got the Linux driver working
with Ubuntu Dapper using the Broadcom wireless chipset.
Best wishes,
Tony.
