Currently I have run out of ideas about how to activate, and create an working wifi on my new machine. It uses an Broadcom PHY - Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY [14e4:4315] (rev 01). I have followed the the advices at linuxwireless.org - but no effect. Maybe I have made mistakes, or something went wrong - I couldn't tell that. I have already changed the latest kernel to PAE version, because wasn't were the default. Changed also the firmware package to newer, but what currently I have achieved is the following:
Networkmanager sees that I have wifi, but shows no wifi network, and says it's "disconnected". The iwconfig command says that I have wireless at eth1, but further data has seems to be set up to nothing (IEEE 802.11 Nickname:"", Access Point: Not-Associated, Link Quality:5 Signal level:0 Noise level:0, Rx invalid nwid:0 invalid crypt:0 invalid misc:0).
Somewhere I have red that for that PHY is integrated with the bluetooth (witch is works - seems to be active), and I will need one of the 2.6.35.xx kernel for fedora. Well, I don't know, but I don't want back the originally shipped SuSE Enterprise Desktop 11....
