<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I fear this is an all-too-common question, but I
want to verify if there's a better answer among the Fedora best.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a Dell TrueMobile 1450 MiniPCI card to
configure for FC1. Inside, it's a Broadcom BCM94309 chipset, which
Broadcom claims is their "reference implementation" for an 802.11a/b/c wireless
interface. Broadcom doesn't sell it direct, so they don't provide any
drivers (same deal for all their wireless devices).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've found a reference on Google that suggests I'm
stuck using ndiswrapper with the Windows driver, but it's an older reference to
the BCM4301 chipset. Couldn't find any references on the Fedora archive
nor the Red Hat 'broadcom-list' archive for my hardware.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Am I stuck with ndiswrapper, or are there better
alternatives? Thanks for any help.
