Hi all,
dunno if you remember the problem I've reported long time ago about mini BCM4303 on my Asus L5800C laptop breaking after an upgrade. Thread starts here [1].

Well, this mail is just to let you know that the ndsiwrapper based driver works, so we can exclude hardware failures.

I'd be much happier using the free software driver of course so if you can suggest something else to debug, I might do that.

Just a note: in order for the ndsiwrapper to function I had to load it manually after removing the b44,b43legacy and finally ssb drivers. Loading the ssb driver *after* ndiswrapper is ok, but doing before results in freezes.

That is not unexpected.
