Other commenters, please confirm what kernel version you are seeing this behavior with. If this is not reproducible with either the linux- generic 3.13 kernel or the linux-lts-xenial 4.4 kernel, then it is not going to be fixed.
Note also that Ubuntu 14.04 has reached the end of standard support, so in addition to the other *-lts-* kernels being out of security support for a long time already, the rest of your system is also out of security support unless you have ESM enabled. -- 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/1818134 Title: modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'wl': Package not installed ubuntu14.04.5LTS kernel 3.13.0-165-generic Status in bcmwl package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in shim-signed package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: when installing bcmwl-kernel-source to build wl.ko package version: 6.30.223.248+bdcom-0ubuntu0.2 Expected behavior: kernel module wl.ko loads.
