Provided you have the firmware for the bcm4313, that should at least work with 2.6.32, I believe. However, you may need to: - boot with acpi_osi="Linux" boot parameter - ensure wireless is enabled in BIOS before booting See our notes for installing Debian on the similar model 1215P (different graphics chipset but similar in other regards): http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEeePC/Model/1215P Ben -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
