   I downloaded the bcm43xx-fwcutter deb file and wl_apsta.o using my XP   
   partition.  I put them in my home folder in Edgy.   
      
   When I installed the deb pkg, it went fine.   
      
   When I did a sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter -w lib/firmware   
   ../home/name/wl_apsa.o, it returned:   
      
   extracking bcm43xx_microcode.fw...   
      
   lib/firmware/bcm43xx_microcode.fw: No such file or directory.   
      
   At this point I'm stuck.  How can I get my Broadcom 4306 working in   
   Edgy?   
      
   Thanks.
