Hi there. I have just installed opensuse 13.1 on a
Dell i386 computer,
Intel Core 2 Duo T5800 @2.00GHz processor
Broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g wireless card (wireless 1395 WLAN mini-card)
According to the hardware information it recognises the card, but it does not recognise any wireless connections in Network manager; the 'wireless' tab is greyed out.
Now I have done as this man has advised in the following link
http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/692
to copy and paste onto the desktop a b43 driver and when I ran
sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/`uname -r` ~/Desktop/wl_apsta.o
it came back with "Cannot open input file wl_apsta.o"
Any ideas how to get it to run? I have no internet access at all. I am having to use another computer to get info and also get the relevant drivers. Is this driver incorrect for this card?
I would really appreciate some help!
Thank you!
