hi. just installed lubuntu on this old laptop. really like this OS and all ubuntu flavors.
i have been having problems getting wireless to work on this so was hoping someone could steer me in the right direction.
i now have it hooked up to ethernet cable, but would like to cut the cord and go with the internal wireless.
this pc has a broadcom BCM4309 14e4:4324 rev 03 adapter, card, or whatever you call it.
looking at the ubuntu wiki, it shows both b43 and b43-legacy handle the 4309 model.
since i had no luck with mint 13 (probably just did something wrong), i was hoping to get some help before i messed things up this go around.
thanks so much for your help.
and btw, i do have puppy slacko 5.4 on another partition and it works fine with wireless, so i know the card/adapter works.
here is the output from the wireless-info script.
Code:
