Thanks Steve, but after several attempts at locating the "correct driver" I had to walk away (my head was hurting from banging it against the monitor :) What I don't understand is that I followed the directions for NDISwrapper, and selected the controller listed in lspci; Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) ...and the error is the same - incorrect driver?? I have seen flashes of "3c501" at times, as if this might be a 3Com unit with Broadcom chip (possible??). Anyway, i'm still looking for a solution. Again, any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
