Hi,
I'm thinking of dropping the nonfree prebuilt broadcom-wl drivers
(and thereby their "support" from live images)
This means also dropping them from ldetect-lst, and if we keep/add
some there, it must be for specific reason and on sub-vendor/device
level to not force the wl stuff on everyone...
[...]
Comments ?
Agreed. Besides, the free driver works much better (i.e. better range)
with my laptop.
As it looks with i586 Beta1 none of the drivers works at the moment-
lspci -v
05:00:0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g
LP-PHY (rev 01)
Subsystem: Broadcom Corporation Device 04b5
Kernel driver un use: wl
can you provide either "lspcidrake -v" or "lspci -vnn" for that device
