Hey! Good on yer! Damien, did you hear that? Way back when we got the
special combination laptop and wireless broadband router, there was no
ndiswrapper. I am surprises D-Link has a zip file with the drivers. I
cannot say the same for the Broadcom chip in my new HP AMD64 laptop. So,
if you have no use for it, perhaps I will try it (I do have
ndiswrapper). fgd.
