I am not very familiar with KDE. I prefer GNOME. The new version of Backtrack 4 is based on Ubuntu with the KDE desktop environment. I can't figure out how to get my Broadcom STA wireless adapter to work. Sure, in Gnome I can just click on Hardware Drivers then Update Drivers. How can I do this with KDE?

I don't know about Backtrack, but Kubuntu is exactly like Ubuntu. They both use the exact same Hardware Drivers Utility.
