Nope... I didn't.  I just today finally installed build-essential and compiled 
bcm43xx-fwcutter.  Guess what: I finally got that one to work, but not with 
the driver for my box.  I had to use a different one.  Go figure. Next, I'll 
mess w/ndiswrapper & see if that driver works with it, as well.  Meanwhile, 
my wireless card finally works. :-)

I stumbled on Roger's mini-howto (sorry, Roger, didn't catch the last name) 
and decided to give his a try, along with his driver (for an HP, but diff 
model).f
