HP Pavilion ze4900 Broadcom 802.11b/g Problems
I have just recently installed Knoppix 4.0.2 onto a HP Pavilion ze4900 Laptop and have been having some problems getting the built in wireless card working.
I downloaded the drivers for the card (a Broadcom BCM94306 802.11 b/g) from hp's website, extracted bcmwl5.inf and bcmwl5.sys to the /tmp/ directory, and loaded them using ndiswrapper, but I am unsure as to what to do next.
Code:
root@SYSINS-MOBILE:/home/Ben# ndiswrapper -i /tmp/bcmwl5.inf
Installing bcmwl5

root@SYSINS-MOBILE:/home/Ben# ndiswrapper -l
Installed ndis drivers:
bcmwl5 driver present, hardware present
root@SYSINS-MOBILE:/home/Ben# ndiswrapper -m
modprobe config already contains alias directive
root@SYSINS-MOBILE:/home/Ben#
Any help/sugestions anyone has would be greatly appreciated.
