[driverloader] .INF file

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

please try with this Windows XP driver to see if there is a difference :

http://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R74092us.EXE

Under Linux, you can use the 'unzip' command on the .EXE file to extract 
the Windows driver. The required .INF file will be named 
'AR/bcmwl5a.inf' inside the .EXE file.

Regards,
