Re: broadcom wireless under F7 -- the recipe(?)

  the final configuration -- after messing with "modprobe" and
blacklisting the bcm43xx module, i started the NetworkManager and
NetworkManagerDispatch services and rebooted, to see this (eth0 is the
wired interface, of course):


# ifconfig

sit0      no wireless extensions.


# iwlist wlan0 scan
... i can see!  i can see! ...


  does this look reasonable?  at this point, i assume i would go into
network admin and configure wlan0 for the SSID, channel and so on,
yes?
