you probably need ndiswarpper for your broadcom wifi:

http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/

As for your sound, hava you tried alsaconf first? and also in alsamixer, you need to turn up the volume and unmute the channels.

Hello,

I just bought linspire 5.0,
the installation went fine, but I just couldn't get any internet connection !
Not through cable or not through wifi.
If I insert the cable, I get totally no response at all out of my linspire...
Configuration options are also very limited as I have seen...

As for the wifi, apparantly the driver for the "Broadcom wifi card" has NOT been installed... How can I use ndiswrapper to correct this?

Thanks in advance for your answers.
Kristof.
