Hans, At the URL you gave, it is stated that they fixed the problem: "Probably requires some backports from master like daf6744 and c71233f" followed later by "Fixed by backporting those two commits and testing build." Those fixes are in patches here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tree/c71233f12cb976b259e88ee4300687df26e5377d/pkgs/os-specific/linux/broadcom-sta Click on a patch, then select raw and copy and paste the text. They apply all the patches in this order: i686-build-failure.patch license.patch linux-4.7.patch linux-4.8.patch linux-4.11.patch linux-4.12.patch null-pointer-fix.patch gcc.patch You may, or may not, want the license patch - with it you will likely see something like "wl: module license 'MIXED/Proprietary' taints kernel" in the kernel logs. Do let us know if the patches do the trick.
