Remember, after you get rid of the backports packages, you have to do a 'modprobe -r lib80211', to get rid of the backport version of it. Then a fresh 'modprobe wl' should do the trick. At least it did for me.

It's not only no solution as Xavier says, but in my case I'm suffering from an unloadable wl module - *and* removing linux-backports- modules-2.6.31-15-generic did not work for me. :( When trying to modprobe wl, I get the following error in dmesg: [quote] wl: disagrees about version of symbol lib80211_get_crypto_ops wl: Unknown symbol lib80211_get_crypto_ops [/quote] Unfortunately, that's also the reason why it's not even possible to *try* the proprietary broadcom STA-driver, suggested by Jockey. (Well, I've learned not to trust Dell anymore: I've begged them to give me hardware that would *not* be a pain-in-the-ass with GNU/Linux and they gave me a 4312 chipset. *sigh*) Any ideas/updates on this broadcom driver issue?
