Dear bios-mod community,
A couple of days ago i bought a new wifi card for my Lenovo thinkpad edge e535. The old one (bcm43142) had very bad support in linux. I called lenovo with the question which other wifi cards were supported by my machine. They adviced me the Intel centrino advanced-n 6250 (P/N: 60Y3195). The funny thing is, the new card won't work... I get the error that the card is not supported...
Is there any way that any of you guys can remove this idiot whitelist? I know there is another post with the same request. The problem with that post is that it only includes the old bios that does not support windows 8...
Link to BIOS files: http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/...uj05wd.iso (bootable CD) / http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/...uj05ww.exe (executable). Both are version 2.51.
Hope there is anyone that can help me with this problem!
thanks in advance
