Hi,
Are all the ISO images for M7 hybrid images?
I'd like to take openSUSE-DVD-Build0625-i586.iso dump it to a USB stick and install it on a Netbook for testing.
That brings me to my next question, is the broadcom driver now in NonOSS, or do I need to look elsewhere for the driver for M7?
If your looking for the main b43 driver, then per the below you can install the main driver manually easy enough: http://en.opensuse.org/HCL/Network_Adapters_%28Wireless%29/Broadcom_BCM43xx#... ===== First, ensure you have the package b43-fwcutter installed. Next ensure you are online, then as root: Run the script: /usr/sbin/install_bcm43xx_firmware. This will download the required firmware, extract it, and save it to /lib/firmware, and configure the b43 module. Your wireless card should now be detected by NetworkManager. ======= Alternatively, if you need the less used STA driver you can find factory versions in OBS: http://software.opensuse.org/search?baseproject=openSUSE%3AFactory&p=2&q=broadcom If those won't do, then you go from source fairly easily as well I believe: http://en.opensuse.org/HCL/Network_Adapters_%28Wireless%29/Broadcom_BCM43xx#... == And now that I've given all that good advice, I need to try the factory OBS STA driver on my laptop. I think I killed wireless when I went to M5 and never bother'ed to fix it.
