Recetly (in January) I've purchased Dell Vostro 1500. Because I need Linux for my work I decided to install SUSE 10-1 distro on it. After carefully partitioning HD and choosing details of installation (GRUB on MBR) I made it work. I was quite dissapointed when I found that my wifi card does not work. The card is: Dell Wireless 1390 802.11g Wi-Fi mini card. I started poking around, first what I did is to find out what my kernel release was (uname -a), and it is 2.6.16.

Download Dell Latitude E7240 Wifi driver for Windows 7 (32 & 64 Bit). Find wireless, wifi, bluetooth driver and optimize your system with drivers and updates. Hi, I'm new in Linux. I have Dell 2200 with this 1370 wireless lan card. I just download Debian this week and installed in my laptop with Windows XP.

I tried on google.com to find info how I can find the driver (my Windows XP still has connection to Linux by using WR/RD FAT32 logical partition by both systems, so I can do this from Windows XP, download to it all neccessary packages). This is what I found on the net. Detail description what packages to use and with what kernels: First, what I did, I upgraded my kernel to 2.6.22.4 (downloaded one from the net: Recompiled, have some work to do on (to setup correct environment, not easy work to do), then I updated GRUB script with a bit more feeling blakks/details in between. So after I reboot from newly installed linux-2.6.22.4 (I've read somewhere that kernels above 2.6.17 are able to support Dell's Wi-Fi, and NOT below).

I did two things. First I downloaded b43-fwcutter-011, and make it executable. Installed it in /src/local/sbin, so I have it included by system in $PATH. Then I downloaded broadcom-wl-4.80.53.0 driver, compiled it, and with cutter tool installed it in /lib/firmware. After rebooting I found that Wi-Fi card still does not work. Please, be aware that I included 802.11mac layer in menuconfig (it is on in.config) and all neccessary SW which is a MUST in order to make broadcom driver to work. The thing I noticed is that it require for some reasons kernel 2.6.24 or later.

I tried to compile kernel 2.6.24, but after make it recognize by GRUB, I was not able to boot from it. I guess I did NOT adjust all things I needed for it to boot sucessfully.

I worked on this a bit, but so far I had no success. I'll rethink how to approach this problem.

In mean time, I tried to comply with kernel requirements, so I downloaded from: //downloads. Program Do Tworzenia Www Html. openwrt.org/sources/ another broadcom driver, b43legacy. It is called 3.130.20.0 and has only object code ready for fwcutter tool to be installed.

Aug 09, 2013 Ahoy there, I'm new to Linux, having just installed mint yesterday on my dell laptop. Lady In Red Mp3 Songs there. It went well, but my wireless card (dell 1395) needs a driver.

I executed b43-fwcutter -w '$FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR' wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o, it installed it in /lib/firmware making b43legacy directory. After rebooting kernel 2.6.22.4 my Wi-Fi does not work.

Any clue what possibly could go wrong in all of what I did? Any steps I've missed here, or maybe I did not include in.config some other drivers/SW necessary for this thing to work?

Twogood, Initially I tried to switch to you solution with NDISwrapper, I carefully read pointer on the net: The real problem was that I could NOT find trace of ANY wireless connection in step 6: 6. Configure network manager to use your wireless card • Open the Networking Admin tool (System Administration Networking), select the Wireless connection and click Properties, ensure the Enable roaming mode checkbox is ticked. • Click the Network Manager icon (computers icon in the top right corner of system tray), your network ESSID should be shown in the drop-down list.

It is whopping 4.1GB as iso image. I burned one DVD in order to make it installable. Installed SuSE 10.3. SuSE during installation immediately recognized the card, and placed/set all important services/drivers there.

The driver comes up (b43), the 80211mac is in there, but it is NOT willing to start at all. Initial kernel distro uses is 2.6.22.5 (for the record).
