Hello, I have a dell latitude x300 laptop, with the broadcom BCM4309 mini pci wireless card. I have tried ndising it... first having problems with syntax on line 13, and converting from utf into ascii, trying different driver versions etc. It seems I always get to this point. where you: kldload ndis kldload if_ndis if i load one, i cannot load the other, says file exists, and my wireless card does not show up I than tried a netgear wireless card, that i have sucessfully ndis'd on ubunto on an old compaq laptop.. For the latest example i followed these instructions to the T http://dannyman.toldme.com/2005/01/05/freebsd-howto-ndisulate-windows-drivers/ but same problem and no ndis showing up in dmesg or ifconfig am I missing somthing? do i need to enable somthing in my kernal, or disable acpi? any clues? I've read about there being a million different broadcom drivers,.. but i couldnt even get it to work on my netgear, -- Dan Sikorsky *Systems Admin/GoldMine Admin* RegionalHelpWanted.com,Inc. & Cupid.com, Inc. 845-471-5200 x220 One Civic Center Plaza, Suite 506 Poughkeepsie, NY 12601 /http://RegionalHelpWanted.com http://Cupid.com http://PurplePages.com/
