I can't help you very specifically, but, I do have an HP Pavillion, a ZX5000; lspci says I have the Broadcom 4306; running PCLINUXOS, I have the wireless working perfectly with NDISwrapper; a month or so back, I installed MEPIS on that machine, and it booted up with the wireless just working - on investigation, I discovered that it had found the Broadcom, installed NDISwrapper, and the Windows driver, all on its own! I would suggest looking at NDISwrapper - you might just get your Broadcom going with that - by the way, after much experimentation in PCLINUXOS, I concluded that the various drivers available on the net were inferior to the ones that were installed in my Windows partition - if you read around, you'll see warnings that the installed Windows drivers are not always the most desirable, but in my case they were. Sorry I can't give you specific info re: NDISwrapper and FC5, but maybe this will help... -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA, USA
