I cannot get wireless to work on HP Compaq 6735s Laptop with Linux Mint 9
Hi.
I cannot get wireless to work on my friends HP Compaq 6735s Laptop with Linux Mint 9. The wireless button is lit up. I can use my Desktop USB wireless adapter alright.
I got my wireless working eventually. I cannot pin point it to any one thing. It may have been a combination of things. I installed the Windows driver via ndiswrapper (it said Hardware present; Yes). I installed b43-fwcutter and got drivers from sendspace.com/file/9qchv0...
