My bad(again...): now I hope it's what I forgot the first time I tried that b43; the second time(that worked) I had to first 1. remove STA 2. then reboot, 3. install b43(with that command) 4. reboot 5. and switch on wireless(via hard keys);
I think it is important that after step 4 I could read in Network Manager's left click that my wireless was "turn off by hardware switch". Hope this helps, Catalin On Mon, Apr 18, 2011 at 1:50 AM, uga <[email protected]> wrote: > I am on 11.04 beta 2 on Dell Inspiron 6400, also BCM4311: > > uga@anna-laptop:~$ lspci -vvnn | grep 14e4 > 03:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 > 100Base-TX [14e4:170c] (rev 02) > 0b:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g > WLAN [14e4:4311] (rev 01) > > 'sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer' did not solve my problem. > I still don't have any wireless. > > According to the "Addition Drivers" thingy I have "Broadcom STA wireless > driver" and "This driver is activated and currently in use" > > Any workarounds? > > -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/760920 Title: STA driver not can not activate bcm4311 wireless -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
