@Khyron, thanks for the solution. actually, i had same issues with wi-fi connectivity with Ubuntu 9.10 installed in Dell xps 1530 using Wubi installer. It didnt recognize the driver. I removed 9.10 and installed Ubuntu 9.4 and It worked. After a fresh install of 9.4 it displayed an icon to activate broadcom driver. On clicking it pops up a window to activate it.
With a with restart wi-fi is up and running!!!!! -- [XPS M1530] Wireless don't work (need to use 'noapic' kernel boot param) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190664 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
