[juneau-lug] Wireless -- Continued

Well -- decided to start at Layer 1 and double-check the hardware specs 
at Dell.  I must have misread the specs or Dell pointed me in the wrong 
direction the first time I did this, but I deciphered the hardware to be 
Broadcom "1370".  I was pointed to the lspci command by another 
contributor, which provided exact information on the hardware in my 
system -- Broadcom 4318.
Turns out that 1370 refers to the True  Mobile class of the Dell 
laptop.  The 43xx device driver was being integrated in the 2.6.17 
version of Fedora Core 4, but it appears that it is not included in 
Fedora Core 5.  I downloaded the device driver and attempted to 
integrate the driver into the kernel -- again -- another brick wall.
