Hi Chenna, Perhaps you are getting a different version of the package than I am? If I type "aptitude show bcmwl-kernel-source" it shows me: Version: 6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu6
If you see an earlier version then maybe I have more or different repositories enabled in my /etc/apt/sources.list file. I do have backports enabled: deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring-backports main restricted universe multiverse And also updates: deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring-updates main restricted multiverse I don't actually know where the package I have came from. Also maybe you need to update your indexes? (aptitude update) I also didn't mention that I am running Ubuntu 13.04 and a 64 bit kernel. I hope there is a clue for you there somewhere.

P SRU request: [Impact] * As a result of this bug, bcmwl-kernel-source will fail to build the module against linux-generic-lts-raring in Ubuntu 12.04. [Test Case] * Enable the precise-proposed repository and install bcmwl-kernel- source (6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu0.0.2). * Install linux-generic-lts-raring * If the package installs without errors from DKMS with both the linux-generic and lts-raring kernels, then the patches work correctly. [Regression Potential] * The patches that I backported from 13.10 will preserve the current driver behaviour on linux-generic (3.2) and linux-generic-lts-quantal (3.5), thanks to the use of specific macros in the code which check the kernel version. As a result, no regressions of any kind can be expected on these kernels.
