I have run into a bug when installing the 4.15.0-29-generic kernel today. The relevant bug report is here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/1757008?comments=all
I would point out that I did not have a problem with the 4.15.0-24-generic kernel. When browsing for info on the bug, I found my way to this page as a fix. The proposed fix installed successfully and the problem is corrected. -- 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/1777646 Title: bcmwl 6.30.223.271+bdcom-0ubuntu1~1.2 ADT test failure with linux-hwe- edge 4.15.0-23.25~16.04.1 Status in bcmwl package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in bcmwl source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] Currently the DKMS package fails to install on supported custom kernels that are based on 4.15. That includes the current 4.15 hwe-edge and some of the custom and cloud kernels as well. [Test Case] Install the broadcom-sta package with the 4.15 hwe-edge kernel. The package installation should proceed without any errors. [Regression Potential] Although new patches were added, the regression risk is very low since the new changes are conditionally compiled based on the kernel version. Besides that, the new package was tested with the following kernels in an amd64 environment: - linux-generic 4.4 - linux-hwe 4.13 - linux-hwe-edge 4.15 - linux-azure 4.15 [Original Description] Testing failed on: amd64: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-xenial/xenial/amd64/b/bcmwl/20180528_193622_1abd6@/log.gz i386: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-xenial/xenial/i386/b/bcmwl/20180528_193842_1abd6@/log.gz To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/1777646/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
