Michael,

Since I am running Ubuntu currently on my laptop, this is the output I
get from 'scanpci -v'

pci bus 0x0030 cardnum 0x00 function 0x00: vendor 0x14e4 device 0x4312
 Broadcom Corporation BCM4310 UART
 CardVendor 0x103c card 0x1361 (Hewlett-Packard Company, Card unknown)
  STATUS    0x0010  COMMAND 0x0007
  CLASS     0x02 0x80 0x00  REVISION 0x01
  BIST      0x00  HEADER 0x00  LATENCY 0x00  CACHE 0x10
  BASE0     0xc8000000  addr 0xc8000000  MEM
  MAX_LAT   0x00  MIN_GNT 0x00  INT_PIN 0x01  INT_LINE 0x0a
  BYTE_0    0x01  BYTE_1  0x58  BYTE_2  0xc2  BYTE_3  0x07

My laptop is an HP nx6325. I have tried ndiswrapper 0.1 from the
website. The driver built and loaded correctly, but I was unable to
scan any of the available networks. I had a feeling that maybe the
ndiswrapper 0.1 did not provide enough NDIS functionality for the
Windows driver to work properly.
