debian wifi too complex

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I found out I have a ralink 8270 wifi adapter and got the ralink firmware driver installed. Unfortunately this also needs a bunch of broadcom files and the information I found so far is incorrect. I will gladly wipe out debian on this laptop and replace it with archlinux if the install process is a little simpler! I ot the b43cutter utility instaled but don't know where to point it for the firmware-b43-installer or firmware-b43legacy-installer files which I also dwnloadd onto this system. Apparently b43cutter will have to work on one or both of those. I wish the debian installer people would spell nonfree firmware packages correctly too but that didn't happen either.
