Hi all,
I'm a complete newbie in Linux and am trying to get my Broadcom BCM4313
working in my Lenovo S10-3t netbook (CentOS 6.3 installed from LiveCD).
I followed the steps in the wiki, which lead me to ELRepo: wl-kmod. I
followed the instructions there until Step 2:
$ mkdir -p ~/rpmbuild/{BUILD,RPMS,SPECS,SOURCES,SRPMS}
$ echo -e "%_topdir $(echo $HOME)/rpmbuild\n%dist .el$(lsb_release -s
-r|cut -d"." -f1).local" >> ~/.rpmmacros
Then I got stuck with this message:
bash: lsb_release: command not found
Next, I tried using the driver from Broadcom site, and ended up with this
message:
KBUILD_NOPEDANTIC=1 make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd`
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.32-279.el6.i686'
CFG80211 API is prefered for this kernel version

Then, I tried the older driver version from Ubuntu's site as suggested in
CentOS wiki, and got this message:

I'm pretty much totally stuck now, as I have no idea what I'm doing at all
. Would really appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance!
