ok, went ahead and repartitioned the laptop and now I'm dual booting winxp and linux (zenwalk)... and I'm having a ***** of a time getting my wireless network to connect... heres the specs...

installed windows driver with ndiswrapper...
blacklisted alternate driver bcm43xx
rmmod bcm43xx


modprob ndiswrapper

when I iwlist wlan0 scan

it sees my wireless network,

but when I do the command dhclient

I get bash:command not found

I can't find the package dhclient3, it is listed in the netpkg app, but it isn't listed in the file system...

Also when I use the gui wifi-radar it sees my wireless router, but when I attempt to connect to it, it tells me couldn't acquire IP address...



Next when I do Dmesg

yesterday I was getting the message
the last 3 lines are ndiswrapper key 1 not assigned
but nowthats gone away...


Somebody Please Help...
