RESOLVED: Wireless BCM4313 on Centos 6 problem
Hi,
I would really appreciate some help installing that driver, I am following the guide on the centos wiki (wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom) , however at step 3 compiling the driver module I get an error:

I don't see any errors. Are you sure it fails? Immediately after your 'make' command, do 'echo $?', that will report a '0' for a successful make, and non-zero is an error.
e.g.:
Code:make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/ M=`pwd`;echo $?

Not IMO, anybody else know? The echo $? will tell you for sure, though.
