Since it began here and others will read here... I want to correct the simple instructions to deal with this problem.
Basilio was kind enough to post this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cd /tmp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ sudo rmmod bcm43xx [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ wget -c http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/`uname -r`/ wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ sudo modprobe bcm43xx I added a sudo to the last line. No reboot needed. Go check your icon and find that wireless networks now show up. I am using a Dell Latitude D800 with a bcm4309 in it. Thanx Basilio. Hopefully this little piece of info will help others to squash this BUG. zeddock -- unresponsive at broadcom firmware installation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/135000 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
