[Bug 1910875] Re: Broadcom wireless driver failed to install with code 10 on focal 20.04
@jsarka, Thanks for those clear instructions! As it turns out I already figured out (I hope) how to revert to kernel 5.4. That has brought back my wifi. If other things go bonkers, I'll get 5.8 back and follow your steps. The bump to 5.8 broke several things on my system, which is why I first tried downgrading kernels. I deliberately picked an LTS, so I'm very surprised that I got a kernel bump that skips three point releases without any warning. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1910875 Title: Broadcom wireless driver failed to install with code 10 on focal 20.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/1910875/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1910876] [NEW] wifi no longer recognized
Public bug reported: Within the last couple of hours there was a batch of system updates presented to me by Discover in KDE. I installed them and restarted like it said to. Upon restart, there is no wifi. If I do `nmcli dev`, I no longer see my wifi device listed at all. It used to be listed as "wlp2s0". Rebooting, or shutting down and restarting cold, didn't help. This is on Ubuntu 20.04, kernel version 5.8.0-36-generic (according to "System Information" in KDE's "System Settings").

[Bug 1910875] Re: Broadcom wireless driver failed to install with code 10 on focal 20.04
I'm new to Linux, so bear with me, but...Within the last hour or so I installed a bunch of system updates in KDE Discover, and suddenly wifi stopped working after the enforced restart. By "stopped working", I mean I have no internet connection via wifi and `nmcli dev` no longer lists my wireless device "wlp2so" *at all*. I'm on an Apple MacBookPro9,2 running 20.04 with KDE. "Driver Manger" tells me I'm using "Broadcom 802.11 Linux STA wireless driver source from bcmwl-kernel-source (proprietary)", for the BCM4331 device. I tried clicking "Do not use the device" and then re-enabling it but I got some cryptic error. Upon re-opening Driver Manager it again says I'm using the proprietary driver. I hope this can be quickly fixed, since this machine is now internet- free except for the occasional times I can plug into ethernet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1910875 Title: Broadcom wireless driver failed to install with code 10 on focal 20.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/1910875/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
