RE: URGENT - v5.0.0 amd64 (stable): Broadcom 4321AG Wi-Fi adapter not detected

["John Wesley Cooper" <jwesleycooper@cox.net>]

Unfortunately, I've had to deal with multiple other issues before I could
get to dealing with this one, and now I'm stuck again!

I downloaded the driver, but I can't seem to build it for some reason.  When
I tried to issue the following build command, as specified by the README
file:

	EXCALIBUR:/home/jwesleycooper/hybrid_wl# make -C
/lib/modules/2.6.26-1-amd64/build M=`pwd`

I merely receive the following (error?) message:

	bash: make: command not found

Frankly, this is the first time I've ever used any version of Linux, and the
last time I had to do anything serious with shell commands was over a decade
ago... and that was using MS-DOS!  Can someone please tell me how exactly
I'm supposed to "build" this driver, as apparently the README file included
is completely useless.

What about using an official drivers from Broadcom available here
http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php? See
http://jomcode.com/fadhil/?p=59 for how to build.
