"I don't get it. I had a BCM38xx wireless LAN card. I bought it because I saw decent reviews on getting it working under GNU/Linux. Well, let's just say it was fun, but not real fun, and leave it at that, eh? The odd thing was, I was using Ubuntu on the laptop at that point, and PCLinuxOS auto-detected and configured the wireless PCI version I bought for one of the desktops.Go figure.
"So I went shopping. This time I set out to find a card with a libre driver that would work with GNU/Linux..."
