Configuring Broadcom Wifi on my tx2510 (2500) within OpenSuSE 11.1 64 bit linux


The simplest way is by update broadcom driver and firmware using OpenSuSE repository. (I think it just enough to upgrade firmware only)

The hard way is compile using STA driver obtained from Broadcom site.

and .......... yes, the wifi is succesfully on. Hm, how can we life without wifi?

    I have same tablet and installed Suse 11.2 (64) last night. But I have same problem either. I was using ubuntu on my tablet before. But I want to test with suse.

    Thank you for this cool info :)

    Hi, did you install SuSE with the DVD or CD (kde live) with the CD I was unable to have a X screen and I had to force shutdown.

    Thank you in advance

    hi louac

    I've started to using ubuntu 9.10
    because its automatically detects touchscreen.
    I suggest to you. its working great with this 9.10 thing.

    hi, ersinakyuz, did sound work on ubuntu 9.10? because one reason i did'nt install ubuntu is my tx2500 sound wasn't working in ubuntu

    oh yeah, tablet (pen) work by default in 11.1, but touchscreen (e.g touch using finger) look like need calibration and I did'nt figured yet how to do because many tutorial (editing x11) didn't work on it
