English Network/Internet
#1

I tried to follow the “sticky” that iwfinger wrote (great tutorial)
and here is the information I was able to extract:

Wireless 1395 WLAN Mini-card
Kernel Driver: ssb
UDI: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_14e4_4315

/var/log/boot.msg:
<6> 6.940826] Broadcom 43xx driver loaded Features: PML, Firmware-ID: FW13 ]

if I execute: sudo /usr/sbin/iwlist scan

lo Interface doesn’t support scanning.

eth0 Interface doesn’t support scanning.

Can you help?

Yes. The 14e4:4315 device needs either the broadcom-wl driver or a
2.6.32-rcX kernel.

Thank you iwfinger. I installed the driver and now everything works fine.

Thanks a lot again.
