Public bug reported: Hello
As my XPS laptop uses a Broadcomm chip for wlan, I went to Hardware Drivers, it detected the needed driver. I activated it, the system downloaded the Driver and put it on use, I just needed to click OK to finish with the process. As soon as I did click on OK, the screen became all Black, and the system went dead. No responses at all to anything, Not consoles, not network, anything. After a hard reboot, the system is ok and wlan is working ProblemType: KernelOops Annotation: Your system might become unstable now and might need to be restarted.
