You are right about strange, unless the dvd is encrypted differently to the last one we tried... Wlan I read that I need to dump "wifi radar" so just did that while I was out. The Howto says I need to extract a driver but I am sure I saw a reference to the bcm driver in dmesg so looking there then more reading I guess. Bruce.

The bcm43xx consists of two parts - one is the in kernel driver and the other is the binary firmware you extract from an object file (usually a windows driver). dmesg will have the in-kernel driver giving messages even if no binary firmware is there.
