Hello Thomas, or anyone else affected, Accepted bcmwl into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/6.30.223.271 +bdcom-0ubuntu1~0.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .

Iain, 1. Apparently, I was wrong about the STA driver; it has the same problem, but it was never patched up 2. For your 14.04 build, you're using the older 3.13 line of kernels: Building for 3.13.0-68-generic and 3.13.0-71-generic I believe the later "point" releases (e.g., 14.04.3) are using a newer line of kernels, for newer hardware support [1]. See this bug, where the user has kernel 3.19.0-33: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/broadcom-sta/+bug/1522548 So this is still a valid bug.

@HugoHirsch: unfortunately, we couldn't get this fix into 14.10. (I'm just a community contributor, and I don't know that much about Ubuntu's release processes work (or don't), but it seems to me like it's really hard to fix things in the current release.) But fortunately for you, there are three releases (14.04, 15.04 and 15.10) that already have the fix! I just double-checked 14.04's repository, and it has the updated package: bcmwl-kernel-source (6.30.223.248+bdcom-0ubuntu0.1) http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty-updates/admin/bcmwl-kernel-source http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/admin/bcmwl-kernel-source http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/admin/bcmwl-kernel-source So, I think you can either use one of these releases, or just download and install the deb package directly from the above URL. (And now I realize your comment was several months ago, and it's only the robots that decided to change things. But others have apparently been reporting this on old package versions, so the info is still useful.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1358966 Title: Broadcom kernel module failed to build [error: macro "alloc_netdev" requires 4 arguments, but only 3 given] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/1358966/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
