Hi,

I have a problem in that system-config-network sees the wireless card asa ethernet card so I don't knowhow to configure it. b43 is not listed in/usr/share/system-config-network/module-info but the b43 kernel moduleis present.

I've just installed 2.6.23.9-85.fc8 on a Dell D800 laptop and have doneall the updates. The wireless board works according to iwconfig.The board is a Broadcom BC4309 and the driver is b43. I have installedthe b43, b43legacy and bcm43xx driver files in /lib/firmware


Can anybody help please?

Peter
