Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller

Asked by allelopath in Linux Setup, Wireless Networking

Tags: Linux, OpenSuse, 10.3 64 bit

I recently installed OpenSuse 10.3 64 bit on an hp pavilion laptop.
The wireless card is not working.
Below is output from lpsci and ifconfig commands.
What do I need to do?
