Dear All,

I've installed Centos6.3 on a Lenove B580 laptop, which has an Broadcom wireless card.

#lspci -v
02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01)
    Subsystem: Broadcom Corporation Device 0608
    Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 17
    Memory at f0500000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]

I ran

#yum --enablerepo=elrepo-kernel install kernel-ml-*

and rebooted.

So now I have kernel :
Linux localhost.localdomain 3.7.1-2.el6.elrepo.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Jan 2 13:30:26 EST 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Next I'm trying to follow the instructions here :

http://elrepo.org/tiki/wl-kmod

in order to get the wireless card working.

But when running:
$rpmbuild --rebuild --target=`uname -m` wl-kmod-5_100_82_112-4.el6.elrepo.nosrc.rpm

I get EM:

 ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.
         include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.
         Run 'make oldconfig&&  make prepare' on kernel src to fix it.


I googled this, en saw that this was a bug in previous kernel version, and fixed in this kernel:

One post mentioned to make a symbolic link, but I cannot get it to work.

Can anyone help me out on this?

Many thanks, J.
