| Oops! The Broadcom is a wireless network card, but I don't see any

Hmm.  My getting mixed up about what I wanted really doesn't mean I'm
not interested in getting the wireless card to work as well.  So I
noticed this section in their brochure with interest:

  Software support WHQL certified for Windows® XP, Windows 2000, ME,
  98SE, and 98 operating systems. Embedded drivers for Linux® and
  VxWorks® operating systems.

Not really sure what is meant by an embedded driver.  But once there
is a driver for Linux, I tend to have more hope for a FreeBSD one.
