BROADCOM WIRELESS OPENSUSE DRIVER

Requires 'ralink-firmware' package, auto selected by YaST, when rt73usb driver got loaded. You need to download the firmware, version 1. One of them is ThinkPenguin. Please note that if a piece of hardware was working with a previous openSUSE release, it is likely it will work with the most recent openSUSE release if it is based on a chipset with free software drivers and firmware if required. Tested with 64 bits. Works correctly without any manual configuration.
