I have compaq presario 714n notebook, Intel G965 chipset. wireless is 
Broadcom BCM94311MCG mini-pci, which shows up in lspci.

dmesg does not show it. dmesg does show eth0 as RTL8139, the wired lan. 
It also shows:

eth1: link down
ADDRCONF(NETDEVUP): eth1 link is not ready

/var/log/messages shows NetworkManager trying to bring up eth1 as a 
wired device using 8139too.

Nothing about the wireless device.

When booted under Vista, this notebook makes the wireless connection.

I'd file a bug report, but where??

In any event, any suggestions how to get this working by Tuesday.
