HP Pavillion DV6-1355dx with Intel 4965agn wifi card

[cperalta]

I have tried both Backtrack 4 pre-final and final versions with this laptop and it's saying that the BIOS might be broken. After loading, everything works fine except for Airodump-ng. When I use the command 'Airodump-ng wlan0', it says something like 'bash: no such file exists'. I did check the correct name for the wifi card using 'Airmon-ng'. If anyone needs more information about this problem, please let me know.

I am having the same issue with both BackTrack 3 and 4 on my HP Pavillion DV6. It will not go into graphical mode and claims that my bios may be broken. I would be interested if anyone has figured out a way around this.

i am having similar bios problem on my hp pavilion dv6 1350ex with intel wifi link 1000 bgn.
I downloaded bt4 final iso and burned it on a dvd, i tried selecting all graphical options on boot many and i always get same message, something about how he cant recognize bios version and that bios will be broken.
I triedt booting it via virtualbox 3.1.4 and it also wont boot graphical interface but it gives me different error, when loading hardware drivers it asks me to upgrade bios or use force_addr=0xaddr
I installed latest bios updates for my laptop and all stayed the same, can anyone help pls i was using bt 3 on my old laptop and i liked it alot.

Using VMWareWorkstation and BT4-VMWare on a HP Pavillion DV6-1310sv I was able to run the graphical interface of BT4. Problem is I cannot (still) use the on-board WiFi LAN (broadcom 802.11b/g). I 'll try harder and will share the info

You can only use USB devices with WMware. This is the limitation of WMware.
If you wanna use your onboard chip, you have to install BT4.
