Description: WLAN card, comes with compaq (and hp equiv) r3000 laptops.

Need to use ndiswrapper (see sourceforge) and bcmwl15.inf (from windows -- see your laptop's support page).

NOTE: with 64-bit kernels, the above driver won't work -- BUT, there is a workaround using a driver that can be found on the linuxant webpage. The have a section of inf files there for their "driverloader", but the broadcom ones work with ndis. Everyone seems to think that this card is incompatible with 64bit linux -- but its NOT!
