今天给一台带有BCM4313 Wifi的本本装Fedora 14,装上后发现Wifi不能用。看来broadcom没有atheros在linux下省心呀。
上网上搜了搜,,貌似给的办法都比较繁琐,需要自己编译驱动然后自己加载。在一个E文论坛发现了这么一招:原文:That broadcom-sta-common deb package supplies the Broadcom 802.11 STA Linux driver. To use it in Fedora, you can either install it
from source or install the pre-compiled binary version available from RPM Fusion. I recommend the RPM Fusion version. To do that,
first install the RPM Fusion repositories…
Then install the driver for the “plain” i686 kernel and the x86_64 kernel this way…Code:
suyum install kmod-wl
For the PAE kernel, install it this way…Code:
suyum install kmod-wl-PAE
Then reboot and check the NetworkManager panel applet for available networks.
If you don’t have a wired Internet connection to do the yum commands, then you still can install the driver offline. For that,
return and report the running kernel…Code:
uname -r
偶的步骤如下:用root直接yum localinstall –nogpgcheck
之后直接yum install kmod-wl
最后reboot。
之后可爱的NetworkManager里出现了wifi…
你不怕困难,困难就怕你。
