broadcom




hi list,

bought my self a hp mini-netbook, included windoze7 and a very strong accu, 10 hours of life.

i put sid on an usb-stick, included fluxbox and wicd(-curses).

wifi = (lspci) brcm4313. (type 5.60.350.6)

loaded/installed the according the debian broadcom- (broadcom 43xx wireless drivers) -wiki convenient driver_firmware. the driver should be included in the sid_kernel, so i understood. however: this wifi_driver does not work.

my questions: what did i do wrong if anything (1) ?

and

broadcom assued a so-called xxx-STA driver (by google) somebody with some experience with this brcm4313 driver for linux (tar.gz) does this one work for my mini_netbook (2) ?

if i find a working driver i can get rid of w7.

regards,

steef
