Well, it seems you're right. HP is extending the warranty and replacing faulty wireless components in quite a few laptop models. (Not mine, though,.. at least not yet.) Here's the link -- http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=ca&docname=c01087277#c01087277_identify
It seems this is a hardware failure related to overheating. They have a new bios to run the fan more to try to prevent the failure if yours is still working. (I actually installed a bios update last year that runs the fan continuously, but it doesn't seem to have protected mine.) -- Jockey Not Detecting Broadcom Wireless Card, When It Should & Provide Use of B43 or STA Driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291271 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
