Bug expired because somebody decides "this is probably irrelevant", based on the false assumption that kernel 3.8 is in precise now.
Last time I looked (http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/linux-image- generic), the precise kernel is 3.2.0-51, in both precise and precise- updates. People using a LTS version are not expected to use non-standard kernels, so making a bug in an LTS invalid because a non-LTS kernel may or may not fix the problem is, to say the least, absurd. Note that this bug had been confirmed and "triaged" by Ubuntu people. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bcmwl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1031831 Title: 3.5.0-7.7~precise1-generic works except for broadcom bcmwl-kernel- source failure Status in “bcmwl” package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: I signed up to test backports of quantal kernel to precise LTS. Sorry I have not tested Quantal on this system yet. Fresh clean install of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on an Acer Aspire One D260 netbook. Major failure during installation: broadcom driver won't install.
