Hello all Ubuntu users!

Im this close of shooting myself with this problem that i have. I hope
someone can help me.

I have a HP Pavillion dv2000. I have a Broadcom BCM4312 wireless card.

A long time ago i asked someone to install Ubuntu 8.04 in my computer along
with Windows Vista. He told me that he couldn't configure the wireless card
but for my surprise when i got it home it was working perfectly.

Then, i downloaded a kernel (2.6.27.7) because i wanted to test some stuff
in it. Right now i need my wireless card to work on i this kernel i
downloaded. Im not very good at linux so i searched online and i found these
links

NONE of them have worked..!!!!!! I even try using WINE like i read in some
email i got for the Ubuntu Users mailing list.

So, is there any way that i can copy some files from one kernel to another
and compile them or something like that so i can make it work????? Im out
ideas here people!!

Im currently using Ubuntu 8.04 (2.6.24-3), that's the good kernel.

Hope i can get some help from you guys. Thanxs a lot..!!!!!!!
