I've run nothing but SUSE for a LONG time. I expected Novell to do a better job on drivers with Linux......a reasonable expectation, and one I'm sure shared by quite a few.

I don't understand. If you've run SuSE for such a long time, then you certainly must know that SuSE doesn't write the drivers, the hardware suppliers do. Blaming SuSE because a native Linux driver isn't available for a Broadcom wireless chip doesn't make sense.
Like others have told you, use ndiswrapper.
Here, Let me tell you too!!!!! Use NDiswrapper; Both 32 bit and the Ubuntu 64 bit works flawless under SUSE 9.1-9.2-9.3.... I've had my Compaq R3000 64 bit running the Ubuntu drivers for quite some time, along with my 32 bit counter part on another machine. Quit blaming SUSE when it's the hardware vendors trying to give us the middle finger................ JD
