¿Anibatman? ¿Batmanatrix? ¡No! Batman: Gotham Knight

Leo en Zona Negativa que DC está preparando un DVD con seis historias de Batman rollo anime que transcurrirían entre Batman Returns y The Dark Knight, muy al estilo de Animatrix. Las imágenes que salen en éste video promocional tienen muy buena pinta:


Broadcom Wireless on Linux

At work I have a Dell laptop with a Broadcom BCM94311MCG wireless card:

# lspci … 0b:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 01) … # lspci -n … 0b:00.0 0280: 14e4:4311 (rev 01) …

The drivers that Ubuntu installs by default were giving me lots of headaches depending on the network’s access point: on some of them the card worked OK; on some others I kept loosing the connection every few minutes, or I couldn’t connect at all. I never found out if the problem was the encryption algorithm in use, or the wifi a/b/g/whatever protocol. Bottom line is the driver worked on some networks but didn’t on some others.

A co-worker told me he had the same problem until he switched to the ndiswrapper driver, so reluctantly I tried it. It work great. :)
