Hello,
I updated my Kubuntu and I still have problems with BCM4318 driver.
Unfortunately I can not install any newer Ubuntu as my old notebook Amilo 8010
always freezes during booting of the live CD.
Can somebody know, what is wrong ?
I have following system:

I am not certain that this version of the firmware works with the 4318. You
might try an older version.

then in dmesg I have a plenty of following:
[ 118.012839] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 118.012854] WARNING: at /build/buildd/linux-2.6.32/net/mac80211/rx.c:2482
ieee80211_rx+0x133/0x160 [mac80211]()
[ 118.012857] Hardware name: AMILO PRO V8010
My system is too new to tell exactly what causes this error; however, I think it
comes from the wireless band not being set up correctly. Do you have CRDA
installed? I do not see any evidence of it in the dmesg output that you posted.
