    Broadcom Troubles

    Hi everyone

    i'm having some difficulties will my wireless on my friends hp dv4. It has a bcm4312 card and so far i've downloaded the kernel headers and the devel pakages, aswell as the broadcom hybrid driver. After i've un tar'd the file i type in

    make

    and it come up with

    KBUILD_NOPEDANTIC=1 make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd`
    make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.34.7-61.fc13.i686.PAE/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
    make: *** [all] Error 2

    but as for my knowledge of linux i'm at my limit, if it wasn't for Archive Manager i probably wouldn't have been able to untar the file

    Thanks in advance

    Hi & Welcome!

    Please try to check
    this. I personally find it to be very helpful as far as wireless questions are concerned.

    Good luck!
