Fedora 7 and Broadcom 43xx WI-FI drivers

Are you running as root when trying to run modprobe? If not, you need to type this before doing the commands in the tutorial: 

Code:

su -

<div>


 

Enter your root password when prompted.

</div>

 

Yep. I executed ALL commands as root, as you said. (Opened terminal, su with password, then copy-pasted each in turn.)

 

There wasn't any problem until the last command (modprobe). It stated that the modprobe package didn't exist. So I tried installing it but couldn't find where to get it.

 

Also... The drivers I used to use with NDISWrapper are the bcmwl5 ones... It worked fine in Ubuntu (easy as pie to set up wireless) but I've had no luck yet with F7.
