    I have a Dell 1390 wireless card in my AAO, and I would like to use it in Linpus. The Connection Manager Summary says it's using the "bcm43xx" driver, but that isn't making much of a difference. What's curious is that in the /lib/firmware directory, there is a "b43" directory.

    When I was using Ubuntu, which was able to use the Dell 1390 just fine with the proprietary drivers it downloaded, I think it was using the "b43" drivers. Is there any way to tell the AAO to use the "b43" drivers instead of the "bcm43xx" drivers?
