[driverloader] BroadCom on Fedora 4 - Can't Connect

Hi,

with the network configuration tool of Fedora Core 4, you will need to 
create the wireless interface. While creating it, you will be given the 
choice of which driver you want to use and you should see 'driverloader' 
if the DriverLoader package is correctly installed and configured. You 
will need to configure the wireless interface with the network 
configuration tool or else you will be unable to use the wireless interface.

To configure DriverLoader, you need to access the Web Configurator 
(http://127.0.0.1:18020) and install the Windows XP driver and then the 
license key. No kernel recompilation is necessary.

If you require more assistance, please send at support at linuxant.com the 
output of 'dumpdiag'. Type the following in a root shell:

---
dldrconfig --dumpdiag
---

Just send the generated file located in /tmp ('driverloaderdiag.txt'). 
It'll help us solve the problem.

Regards,
