Everyone:

I have a three-year-old Dell Inspiron 1545. It came with the Dell
Wireless 1397 WLAN Mini-Card.

The current output of lspci -k |grep -iA5 wire gives "Dell Wireless 1397
WLAN Mini-Card" as a subsystem. The relevant kernel module is "ssb."

$ lspci -k |grep -iA5
Usage: grep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE]...
Try 'grep --help' for more information.


Currently this card will not connect. Nor can I force it to connect by
directly editing the network interface. I've tried several times, but I
can't get to a MAC address for it.

What driver(s) or other kernel module(s) should I install, and where can
I get them?

Broadcom has a 32-bit and a 64-bit tarball for what they say is a driver
for this card. Should I install that on my system?

Please advise. It seems a shame to operate any laptop without wireless
connectivity.

$ lspci -knn | grep -A100 Wireless
