[SGVLUG] Linux and wireless issus

[Mic Chow]

Well I don't have the same chipset or even the same hardware or distro, 
but for me, I ended up having to use an NDISwrapper to make my wireless 
card work.  I am running SUSE 10.1 on a Dell D610 Latitude with a Dell 
1370 (Broadcom Chipset) wireless card.  First I installed NDISwrapper 
(Google: NDISWrapper Howto= 
http://www.google.com/search?q=ndiswrapper+howto&btnG=Search&hs=UwB&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial)  
then had to do the unique tweaking for my distro, but there should be a 
good bit for Fedora. 

Anybody else on the list have anymore input on this?
