因為Compaq presario M2000太新了，sarge中的kernel 2.6.8太舊，無法啟動HD DMA，所以
1. /etc/apt/sources.list中加上etch，
   deb http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian/ etch main contrib
   然後
   apt-get install linux-image-2.6.12-1-k7 linux-headers-2.6.12-1-k7

2. apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils ndiswrapper-source wireless-tools gcc-4.0
   (因為etch中的kernel是用gcc-4.0 compile的，所以compile ndiswrapper時要指定gcc-4.0，要不然會無法載入kernel module，會出現format不對)
     
3.
   cd /usr/src
   tar jxf ndiswrapper-source.tar.bz2
   cd modules/ndiswrapper
   export KVERS=2.6.12-1-1-k7
   export KSRC=/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.12-1-k7
   export CC=gcc-4.0
   debian/rules binary-modules
   dpkg -i ../ndiswrapper-modules-2.6.12-1-686-smp_1.2+1.3rc1-1_i386.deb

4. 下載 http://h50178.www5.hp.com/support/PY850PA/more_info_local_20057.html
   到M$ windows下解開，複製bcmwl5.inf與bcmwl5.sys到工作目錄

5.
   ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf
   ndiswrapper -l
   Installed ndis drivers:
   bcmwl5          driver present, hardware present
   ndiswrapper -m
   modprobe ndiswrapper

6. 測試看看
   iwconfig
   iwlist wlan0 scan

7. 網路設定檔可以這樣寫:
   /etc/network/interfaces
   auto wlan0
   iface wlan0 inet static
   pre-up modprobe ndiswrapper
   post-down rmmod ndiswrapper
   address 192.168.1.6
   netmask 255.255.255.0
   gateway 192.168.1.1
   broadcast 192.168.1.255
   network 192.168.1.0
   wireless_essid MyNetwork
   wireless_channel 1
   wireless_rate auto
   wireless_key xxxxMyKeyxxxxx restricted

 for my V2311US with Broadcom 4318 these drivers worked with ndiswrapper:

 while these did not:
 http://www.broadcom.com/products/Wireless-LAN/802.11-Wireless-LAN-Solutions/BCM94318
 PCIID: 14e4:4318

# ps. 如果使用Ubuntu 6.06，他的2.6.15的kernel中有一個bcm43xx的module(就是bcm43xx，不是bcm4318)，不能順利啟用這張無線網卡，要用ndiswrapper。但是他會站著茅坑不拉屎，會和這個ndiswrapper相衝，要把bcm43xx列在/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
