    Broadcom Modules

    Greetings!

    If 7.0 + builds accept b43 modules, no Broadcom components should be
    enabled, compared to 6.7.1 (30apc671). '30apcb43' is from Hotlink posted
    earlier in thread.

    @ luther
    In your 7/0+ context, I needed to remove
    /etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-sta-common.conf to allow b43 to be installed.

    Adding modprob -a b43 to /etc/rc.local is an alternative.

    Thumbs up * resolved finally *

    Hi ALL!

    7.02 LiveDVD installs b43 WIFI driver w/o ethernet hook-up, as did 6.71!

    This was an essential 'fix' for the notebook crowd, thanks!

    6.4.3 worked for you, 6.7.1 didn't.
    The challenge was to make it work for both the b43 & the wl crowds.
