I am in a stage where I am frequently formatting my computer.My laptop
needs some kind of properietary wifi driver.
After installation of Ubuntu I go to control panel and enable the
available drivers for this machine.
Where it downloads or enables STA Broadcomm driver.I want to know how
do find out what changes does it do or where does it keeps the
downloaded file since I have to format my laptop
many many times so I want to copy it in a USB.That will save some
time at my end.

Hi John,
Trust me, with kernel 2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.x86_64 it works like a charm. =
It is true I had to detect by myself the IO port the BIOS assign to the =
card and that's all. As I don't have to change daily the card to a =
different slot, everything works if I load the driver parport_pc with =
parameter io=3D0x2018.
I was able to do this because if I type lspci, the operating system =
detects the card. The problem comes when I start with kernel =
2.6.32-131.17.1.el6. Then lspci does not not show the card in the right =
way. Instead a message with the text "!!! Unknown header type 7f" =
appears in the section of that card.
