I might have been mistaken about the PCI-E, the lspci -n gives me... 03:00.0 0280: 14e4:4311 (rev 01) ...and lspci -vvv gives me... 03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (rev 01) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Unknown device 1363 Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- SERR- On Sun, 2006-12-03 at 16:21 -0500, Robert Martin wrote: > > >> I would be happy to give more >> information if requested, or try different kernel/firmware options. >> > > Has it ever worked?
