So there must be something wrong with the way you install compat-wireless. I can give you some hints: 1) find -name "b43.ko" /lib/modules 2) modinfo b43 3) modinfo b43 | grep filename But I don't know what exactly are you doing wrong. -- Rafał -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
