Hi all,

is Dell e6410's b43 wireless card supported by the open source driver ?

Here's lspci dump:

It's at least not listed under http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Devices/PCI

If it is supported, which firmware should I use ? (kernel is 3.3-rc2)

It is. See http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/brcm80211

The firmware is available in the linux-firmware repository on
git.kernel.org. See
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git;a=summary

It is also supported with b43, but you may need to select Kconfig option
for that.

last time I tried that one (3.1 or 3.0, can't remember) it was causing
all sorts of problems and I got numerous BUG()s. Because this is my work
laptop, I decided to ditch that driver. Is it more stable now ?
