[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1360783] Re: Broadcom wifi crash in bcmwl-kernel-source cfg80211
Brian Burch, just to clarify, bcmwl is the meta package name on Launchpad, associated with bcmwl-kernel-source. This is confirmed via https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl . Despite this, did you actually run the command? If so, please post the result of the command to this report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bcmwl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1360783 Title: Broadcom wifi crash in bcmwl-kernel-source cfg80211 Status in “bcmwl” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: lspci shows: Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01) lsb_release: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS (actually UbuntuStudio) Linux version 3.13.0-34-lowlatency Dell Studio 1558 with Intel CPU in i386 mode and four CPUs.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1360783] Re: Broadcom wifi crash in bcmwl-kernel-source cfg80211
Sorry Chris, but your suggested command failed because it was looking for a package called "bcmwl". The package installed, as quoted in my bug subject, is bcmwl-kernel-source. This is because it is installed as a dkms module that has to be compiled against the appropriate kernel headers. I don't know how to run apport-collect against this bug reference number, and yet make it collect from the valid ubuntu package name. Could you tell me, please?
