wireless problem sabayon 3.4f
hi i just installed my new sabayon about last week, it works perfect. however there is one problem. i don't think it has a driver for my wireless card. how do i go about installing and finding what driver i need? is that really the problem? i'm not sure what specifics to post and i have no idea how to check most of the specs on my computer.

You will need to be root for the command to work.

Do
Then you can do "net-setup eth0" or "net-setup eth1" whichever is correct.Code:modprobe bcm43xx
