bcmwl6
are there any bcmwl6 64bit drivers available. ive tried the 32bit drivers but i've heard they dont work under 64bit suse. i also tried the bcmwl5 drivers but when i install them, both the 32 bit and 64 bit under opensuse 10.2 x64, it simply says driver installed. but the bcmwl6 drivers say hardware detected leading me to believe that my system isnt compatible with it. so are tehre any available

Is there some reason you need the address space of 64bit? Unless you really have special address space needs it is better to run 32bit. With 64bit you constantly run into this kind of problem.

He's just saying you'll have fewer problems if you switch back to 32bit.
