PRECOMPILED DRIVER
Some distros (Ubuntu and Fedora at the least) already have a version of this driver in their repositories precompiled, tested and ready to go. You just use the package manager to install the proper package. If its available for your distro, this is usually an easier solution. See the end of this document for further discussion."
Why make the use of suse any harder than it already is?
Fedora does not ship it, it's part of rpm fusion. The driver violates the kernel license and therefore we do not distribute it as part of openSUSE. Why can't Broadcom play this - like many others - according to the roles of the game?
