I'm being lazy cause I'm tired so I'm posting this without googling first. sry. Anyone know a way to get the bcm43xx driver (source or binary) for FC5 other than grapping snapshots and compiling?
thanks
It is already included in FC5...
Try this: grep -1 bcm43xx /usr/share/doc/fedora-release-5/RELEASE-NOTES-en.txt
When I tried it (ie modprobe bcm43xx) on my Dell Latitude X300 it froze my machine totally.
that's why we crippled it so that it doesn't auto-load. There's something funky about the Dell's that the driver tickles in some way. The same behaviour hasn't been seen on any other systems afaik.
