Your Edimax WiFi dongle is a Ralink chip. The one I was referring to is the laptop's native (the Broadcom internal WiFi) chip which you claim you got working, hence why I was talking about using a Linux LiveCD (it detects the internal WiFi OOTB) and typing lspci (that shows the internal PCI/PCIe...

Hi. Can you please post the exact chipset of your WiFi (use a Linux Live USB/CD and at the terminal type both sudo lsusb and sudo lspci | grep "Network" and post both outputs in "CODE" tags) and the threads you used to set it up, please? TIA.

The acpi implementation in my laptop's BIOS is very unstable in the amd64 version of freebsd and the only reliable wifi driver is a win98 one I found (the winxp one's cause random kernel panics). The whole ndis thing is preciselly because the laptop won't accept any wifi card that is not in the...

is it impossible?

forth I guess.

Also the original AirPort card was prism-based and not broadcom-based. The airport extreme are the ones with the broadcom chips.

Which goes to prove the point that Microsoft uses propietary formats/filesystems AS A MEANS to make it as hard, risky and unreliable as possible to switch away from their products. Essentially once you are in, you can't get out. Also did you notice that MS made a new filesystem (refs). I am 100%...

go to a terminal window in the Linux OS and type lspci -v > lspci.txt, sudo lsusb -v > lsusb.txt and sudo lshw > lshw.txt. And post the lspci.txt, lsusb.txt and lshw.txt files (those 3 files contain the information you need about your hardware devices (your wireless card is the device that will...

Hi. I finally got the HP Pavilion G4-1065la wifi working with ndis. But now I would like to know if it is possible to compile the ndis driver and wrapped windows wifi driver directly into the kernel. I ask because I'm trying to compile a PAE-enabled kernel and I need to compile it with the...

You'll need to add SYNCDHCP to the wireless interface. And if you expect to use WPA add WPA before SYNCDHCP (ifconfig_wlan0="WPA SYNCDHCP").

Is it the same exact card (bcm4313wifi+bcm2070bt)? Or the wifi only bcm4313? Because the problem I have is that I don't get a kernel panic by loading them at boot. When I try to load at boot it just gets stuck in the "NDIS API" part. There is no core dump or anything like that. It just won't...

Hi. I got (in June this year) a brand new HP Pavilion G4-1065la with Ubuntu 11.04 64bits preloaded (it was a limited edition of Linux based Pavilion G4 laptops for Latin-American countries, that came with Linux and without the Windows tax, making them cheap. This edition was never advertised...

Delete the ndis driver you built and try re-building it with NetRcaCmXP.sys instead of netrcacm.sys and use the same inf you used before (avoid the one with "Vista" in it's name, that's a Vista driver (ndiswrapper/ndisgen doesn't support Vista/7 drivers yet) and if you're running the 32bits...

Have you tried running the Linux version under the linux compatibility subsystem? That may let you see the individual drives in your array.

Thanks. I didn´t realize I had that tty in "off".

Hi. I got FreeBSD 7.2 running in an old box, Xorg runs fine but I wanted to know. How do I get wdm to autostart?

You could also put gdm_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf to get gdm autoloaded. Also powerd_flags="-a hiadaptive -b minimun -n adaptive" works better for power saving in laptops.

Likelly it´s just PSU failure.

Long time *NIX user here and quite new to Wintendo, got a few questions for you. How can I run "PC" games in my Linux PC without Wintendo? How do I activate Wintendo´s built-in quick-save/quick-reload. There was a tuto in youtube to activate it, but it was removed and all I remember is it said...

The newest version of Xorg is AFAIK Linux-dependant (it depends on the Intel GEM module which is now part of the linux kernel), what you need is either XFree86 or an old Xorg release.
