Thanks Bernardo. Your link was basically the same as where I had already downloaded from.
Never having worked with it before, I am struggling to rapidly understand the maintenance, packaging and build structures of ubuntu dkms. I failed to find a patch file of the correct name, but I can now see the content of what will become it within the bcmwl_6.30.223.30 +bdcom-0ubuntu3.diff file, so I have something to work with - even though I don't actually have the patch file used during the dkms install of the bcmwl module. bcmwl_6.20.155 running under my generic kernel is the only way I can use the wifi adapter at the moment. My low-latency and custom kernels are installed on the same system and share the same package. I don't want to risk breaking the only combination that currently works, and I can't see a safe and easy way to have both versions of bcmwl on the same system. I will stick with slow and painful source file comparisons for the moment - unless you tell me a quicker way... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1156138 Title: bcmwl-kernel-source fails to build on lowlatency kernel [FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module wl.ko uses GPL-only symbol '__rcu_read_unlock'] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/1156138/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
