I have Dell Inspiron 1525 with Broadcom BCM 4312 wi-fi card. And the The place I am staying right now, I can only use Wi-fi here. I have recently installed FEDORA 10 and I could not get my Wifi working. Now I am working with Broadcom wl driver with my UBUNTU 8.10 and I tried to it for Fedora too. But I am going wrong somewhere, cant figure out where. And without the internet I cant proceed. Maybe because I m not familiar with rpm and yum. following are the packages I am trying to install- broadcom-wl-5.10.27.6-3.fc10.noarch.rpm <div id=":1et" class="ii gt"> kmod-wl-5.10.27.6-5.fc10.5.i686.rpm kmod-wl-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686-5.10.27.6-5.fc10.5.i686.rpm from <a href="http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/releases/10/Everything/i386/os/as" target="_blank">http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/releases/10/Everything/i386/os/as</a> mentioned in a forum but I could not succeed, even maybe some dependencies are missing. </div> <div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jul 1, 2009 at 9:30 PM, <<a href="mailto:fedora-india-request@redhat.com">fedora-india-request@redhat.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Send Fedora-india mailing list submissions to <a href="mailto:fedora-india@redhat.com">fedora-india@redhat.com</a> To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit <a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-india" target="_blank">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-india</a> or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to <a href="mailto:fedora-india-request@redhat.com">fedora-india-request@redhat.com</a> You can reach the person managing the list at <a href="mailto:fedora-india-owner@redhat.com">fedora-india-owner@redhat.com</a> When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Fedora-india digest..."

I mean I can get connected to the internet only thru Wi-Fi here. So my only choice is to get the packages in a flash drive and install them. I remember using deb only my ubuntu. Dont know how to do the same thing in Fedora I was hoping if someone could help me with that. -- Hermes Think Free, Think Open Source -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If you can specify what you're trying to install, we could maybe give you a better answer. -- regards, Ankur ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Wed, 1 Jul 2009 08:47:25 +0530 From: sankarshan <<a href="mailto:foss.mailinglists@gmail.com">foss.mailinglists@gmail.com</a>> Subject: Re: [fedora-india] WiFi driver installation without Internet Connection To: <a href="mailto:fedora-india@redhat.com">fedora-india@redhat.com</a> Message-ID: <<a href="mailto:35586fc00906302017n7e4cc5y867a0d4ddb863092@mail.gmail.com">35586fc00906302017n7e4cc5y867a0d4ddb863092@mail.gmail.com</a>> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 On Tue, Jun 30, 2009 at 10:44 PM, abhishek sharma<<a href="mailto:emote2abhishek@gmail.com">emote2abhishek@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > What do I do when I cant use Yum?.

Perhaps you are looking for yum localinstall (please see man page for yum for more details) but we'd need some details about the packages you'd like to install before going further. -- <a href="http://www.gutenberg.net" target="_blank">http://www.gutenberg.net</a> - Fine literature digitally re-published <a href="http://www.plos.org" target="_blank">http://www.plos.org</a> - Public Library of Science <a href="http://www.creativecommons.org" target="_blank">http://www.creativecommons.org</a> - Flexible copyright for creative work ------------------------------ </blockquote></div>
