You're half out of luck - that's a Broadcom chipset card, which Broadcom has no specs on, and hence, no Linux driver.

You'll have to use ndiswrapper(.sf.net) and combine that with the Windows XP driver.  That should work.

Libranet 2.7.1, archaic, but its all i've got =(

Thank you WMD, i'll try that and report back.

EDIT: I can't install NDISWrapper. I keep getting errors when i try to make/make install. I get "ERROR: Union has no member named param" on almost every line.
