Hi, I have exactly the same problem on a Dell Inspiron 640m (proc : Core2Duo T5500). I downloaded the 32-bit windows drivers, converted it with ndisgen (following this tutorial (in French) http://oregnier.developpez.com/cours/unix/freebsd/wificard/?page=page_3#L3.2 ) Ndisgen worked just fine, generating bcmwl5_sys.ko with no error at all. When I try to kldload it, I get a kernel panic and the same errors as "BSDUser", although I don't know how to redirect the output (kldload bcmwl5_sys.ko > logfile resulted in an empty file). I tried to kldload ndis and if_ndis before loading bcmwl5_sys.ko, same errors. Is there a way to get this device working on my computer, or should I switch back to some evil OS ;-) ?
