 | 7 | 	  b43 is a driver for the Broadcom 43xx series wireless devices. | 
 | 8 |  | 
 | 9 | 	  Check "lspci" for something like | 
 | 10 | 	  "Broadcom Corporation BCM43XX 802.11 Wireless LAN Controller" | 
 | 11 | 	  to determine whether you own such a device. | 
 | 12 |  | 
 | 13 | 	  This driver supports the new BCM43xx IEEE 802.11G devices, but not | 
 | 14 | 	  the old IEEE 802.11B devices. Old devices are supported by | 
 | 15 | 	  the b43legacy driver. | 
 | 16 | 	  Note that this has nothing to do with the standard that your AccessPoint | 
 | 17 | 	  supports (A, B, G or a combination). | 
 | 18 | 	  IEEE 802.11G devices can talk to IEEE 802.11B AccessPoints. | 
 | 19 |  | 
 | 20 | 	  It is safe to include both b43 and b43legacy as the underlying glue | 
 | 21 | 	  layer will automatically load the correct version for your device. | 
 | 22 |  | 
 | 23 | 	  This driver uses V4 firmware, which must be installed separately using | 
 | 24 | 	  b43-fwcutter. | 
 | 25 |  | 
 | 26 | 	  This driver can be built as a module (recommended) that will be called "b43". | 
 | 27 | 	  If unsure, say M. |
