[Edwardo Fuentes]

I appreciate being  welcomed for my first time to this users group. I got
good helpful hints on enabling my broadcom wireless card on ubuntu 10.10.
I found it in the removed the bcm 43xx from the blacklist, installed the
driver & firmware. unfortunately wireless is still not working. gotta check
the card & plugs next. hope to see ya next week.

Thanks;
Edwardo
