Looks like all the headers are there. For some reason I have yet to
figure out bcmwl blacklisted pretty much every broadcom module. Still
tryi8ng to figure that one out and of course it kills it for the earlier
versions of kernels as well so... I may have to rebuild the box from cd
but I really don't want to do that as I can't back up the data on it.

Hi.
If memory serves me, I had a similar problem when I used Ubuntu 12.10.
Not sure, but I think the problem was caused by lack of installation of
header files from the new kernel, which prevented the compilation of
modules related to this card.
Look for a package named linux-kernel-headers, linux-headers or
something of that sort and see if it is installed. I am not sure about
the correct name.
If it is installed, check if the installed version is compatible with
the version of the kernel.
Hope that helps.
Thanks.

Yes I know this is probably not the list for this but it is the best I
have at the moment.
Over the weekend I did an update on an older dell laptop running 12.04.
It has been doing fine with that os until now. After the update when I
rebooted it is no longer loading the modules for the BCM4401-B0 ethernet
card whic means that of course that computer no longer has access to any
network.
Can anyone think of any reason this may have happened and if there is a
solution to it. I have done a serch of the internet especially ubuntu
and found no information.
Thanks
