OK, I made a mistake there too. b44 I use for eth0, *b43* was grabbing |
68 |
wlan0 before ndiswrapper could. |

|
70 |
I tried playing with b43 and the cutter tool, but it didn't work as I |
71 |
mentioned before. |
72 |
|
73 |
I had to use the old bcm43xx module. There were some kernel options to |
74 |
change, and a different cutter tool. I followed the instructions here: |

Perl is designed to give you several ways to do anything, so |
82 |
consider picking the most readable one. |
