Re: ibook G4 why wireless running slowly



I am having a problem with the wireless after upgrade.  I cannot get
it to work broadcom 4306 (rev 3).  I have used the b43 firmware as
suggested by http://wiki.debian.org/bcm43xx#supported_b43 . Do I need
to do something else?  I am a newby to linux.

Let's not spend our time and resources thinking about things that are
so little or so large that all they really do for us is puff us up and
make us feel like gods.  We are mammals, and have not exhausted the
annoying little problems of being mammals.
