hi jsmitch - you'll need to install the package "dkms" for the package listed in #13 to install. Normally it's installed when you attempt to update the proprietary driver module, but if you're on a fresh install and haven't done that, worry not.
The dkms package is located on the Ubuntu install media, at /pool/main/d/dkms - on the 14.04.2 media, the filename is "dkms_2.2.0.3-1.1ubuntu5.14.04_all.deb". Install that first, then install the bcmwl package file. Also, related to this bug: I have a second system which was running 14.04.1 and I followed the instruction to "opt in" to the hardware enablement stack on that system, rather than doing a fresh install. Instructions for doing so are outlined here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack I was surprised to find that doing so pulled down the updated bcmwl package automatically and did not require a manual install after the fact. So for those of you who are on a 14.04/14.04.1 install, rather than do a fresh install of 14.04.2, you may want to just run that first command listed to get the new kernel and other packages. It may save you some headache. It looks like someone just didn't think to bundle the updated package with the 14.04.2 install media. Is there a chance the media image can be refreshed to include the updated bcmwl package, so future users won't have this problem? If not, can we mark this for 14.04.3 to ensure the problem is resolved with a new point release? -- 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/1307744 Title: bcmwl-kernel-source 6.30.223.141+bdcom-0ubuntu2: bcmwl kernel module failed to build [error: too few arguments to function ‘cfg80211_ibss_joined’] Status in bcmwl package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: installation of the kernel 3.15-RC1 on trusty...
