Hello anyone who uses the DriverLoader with Dell TrueMobile wireless, <br>
<br>
In trying to set-up wireless for Linux (Red Hat 9) on a Dell
Latitude D600 laptop with a Broadcom TrueMobile 1300 miniPCI 802.11b/g
wireless interface, I found that I can extract the Windows XP driver
"R65194.EXE" referred to in my email (below) with 'unzip'. Extracting
this file produces 41 files within TMSetup/, Omcixlt/, bin/
subdirectories, and now I'm wondering -- which are the proper .INF,
.SYS, etc. files to feed the DriverLoader's web configuration
utility?? Is it the <span style="font-family: monospace;">TMSetup/bcmwl5.inf/.sys</span>
pair?<br>
The list of extracted files follows...Any advice would be greatly
appreciated!<br>
<br>
Thanks a lot, <br>
<br>
Cameron<br>

<pre>Dear Linuxant support,
In attempting to use wireless ethernet with a Linux Red Hat 9 installation on
a Dell Latitude D600 laptop, I recently became aware of your DriverLoader
software (see email below). I installed the appropriate RPM for my kernel
(2.4.20-8), and now I have a very simple question -- when I go to the web-based
configuration page (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://127.0.0.1:8020">http://127.0.0.1:8020</a>) I am prompted for the Windows XP
device driver package (the laptop has Dell's TrueMobile 1300 Internal 802.11b/g
mini-PCI wireless interface, manufct's by Broadcom), but I'm not sure what .INF
or .NTF file I'm supposed to upload??
As far as I can tell, the only available driver is a file called "R65194.EXE",
which I can find by looking in (1) the CDs which came with the laptop, (2) the
most recent Dell driver download pages, and (3) your own Windows Drivers
download page (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/drivers.php">www.linuxant.com/driverloader/drivers.php</a>). However, this is not
accepted by the DriverLoader configuration utility. I would greatly appreciate
any advice on how to proceed, where to download the proper .INF file for this
broadcom chip, etc.?
Thanks a lot,
Cameron
