I'm having problems getting the wifi on my laptop to work.
The laptop is a Compaq Presario V5214ea
The wifi card is a Broadcom 4311 (rev 1)
I've been looking at the Gentoo Wiki page:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_BCM43xx
The problem I've run into is with the kernel setup (kernel
linux-2.6.21-gentoo-r4)
Under
Device Drivers -->
Network device support -->
Wireless LAN drivers
"Broadcom BCM43xx wireless support" does not appear.
Has it been removed from the kernel for some reason? Do I need to enable some
other option in order to make this option available? I have enabled the PCI
express support.
Any clues would be most welcome
Thanks
Matt
