The problem here is that we are dealing with with closed-source software, so I cannot point to a place in the code that should be implemented differently. I'm also not capable of running production tests for counting the kernel oopses per day, or whatever metric the quality of a driver is measured by. All I can say is that wl oopses more frequently now than it did before. My perception is that the old driver used to work better than Broadcom's newer release, and the same seems to be true for many other people; see the links in the OP. This is why I opened this bug. I realize that this isn't much for you to work with. In particular, I don't expect anyone to track down the bug. This is why I suggest to not immediately discard old drivers on the arrival of a newer version. > As well, does using Utopic change anything for you in this issue? The new driver still accounts for about one wifi outage per hour here. One OFF-ON on WiFi switch brings it back on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1289857 Title: offer 6.20.155.1 build in trusty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/1289857/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
