Comment 20 for bug 188621

I have tried this and other different work arounds. Neither ndiswrapper nor the b43 driver are working on my Compaq R4125US laptop with Broadcom 4318 chip. Since I don't have access to a "wired lan" I've had to do a lot of my work back and forth via Windows then Kubuntu. I've currently given up and am waiting for the final release of Kubuntu 8.04. I'm hoping that they get the b43 driver working correctly as when I did get it to work in an early Alpha it worked even better than with ndiswrapper. However, if I have to use ndiswrapper again, I'll be more than happy to as it's worked well in the past.
