@Thomas Hotz: I tested the updated deb I posted in #5 on linux 3.5.0-4.dmz.1-liquorix-amd64, and it works for me
Now, given a power regression in kernel 3.5, I was eager to test drive 3.6-rc6, and found rc7 out already! So yesterday I installed linux 3.6-rc7.towo.1-siduction-amd64, the wl.ko module compiles and installs cleanly, and loads okay upon boot to 3.6-rc7. However, I'm unable to associate to my AP anymore: Pointers in syslog Sep 25 21:34:10 terra wpa_supplicant[2787]: nl80211: 'nl80211' generic netlink not found Sep 25 21:34:10 terra wpa_supplicant[2787]: Failed to initialize driver 'nl80211' [..snip] Sep 25 21:34:31 terra wpa_supplicant[2787]: eth2: Trying to associate with 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (SSID='xxxxxxx' freq=2452 MHz) Sep 25 21:34:31 terra wpa_supplicant[2787]: eth2: Association request to the driver failed As bcm43142 (Dell hybrid wifi/bluetooth adapter / 14e4:4365) is fairly new, this proprietary driver is all that's there to support it. :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/923809 Title: Upgrade bcmwl to verison 6.20.55.19 (r300276) or greater To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/923809/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
