[GLLUG] Registering on MSU Network / Wireless question

[Joseph E. Glass]

Hi Tom,

I was facing this problem recently, I bought a laptop with a mini-pci
wireless card and have found that it was incompatible with linux as of
yet (Broadcom sux.)  First find out what chipset you use, you can find
this by using 'lspci' or 'cat /proc/pci'.  Once you gather the chipset,
just google the model number and append the word 'linux' to your search
string.  Good luck!

Joe
