Create a new directory and copy the file sp33008.exe there.
Open an LXTerminal and change to that directory.
Use 7z to extract the files from sp33008.exe.
Code:
7z x sp33008.exe
You will find many new files in the directory including a .inf and some .sys files.

I hope that helps.
Hey klaus2008!

I tried bcmwl5.inf w/ndiswrapper bundled w/knoppix 5.1.1 LiveUSB CD, since it needs to use the windows driver emulated.
Invalid driver trapped:

e : invalid driver!

****************

In the unzipped list, I see a CAB file named bcm43xx
Q: Can knoppix 5.1.1 unzip CAB?

Suspect the correct .inf is in there . . .

THX 4 HLP!

PS. BCM4318 is the correct chip set, as reported
