i JUST WENT THROUGH THIS. OPTION 1 Load kubuntu-desktop in synaptic. USE PATCH CABLE NETWORK 500 MEGS of files. You can now use additional drivers in a graphical environment. Option 2 Attempt to install your wifi driver. If it install your done. If it say's BLACKLISTED or check log file /var/log/jockey.log OPEN A TERMINAL and run sudo gedit /var/log/jockey.log if it has a series of errors scroll to bottom and see if it lists drivers as BLACKLIST. If so, run sudo ls /etc/modprobe.d/ and it will return something like alsa-base.conf blacklist.conf blacklist-oss.conf blacklist-ath_pci.conf blacklist-firewire.conf blacklist-rare-network.conf dkms.conf blacklist-bcm43.conf blacklist-framebuffer.conf blacklist-watchdog.conf iwlwifi.conf blacklist-modem.confbroadcom-sta-common.conf vmwgfx-fbdev.conf figure out witch ones have your drivers in it. I used: blacklist-bcm43.conf broadcom-sta-common.conf blacklist.conf using the command sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-bcm43.conf unblacklist the driver using (# driver ). The comments at the top of the file is guide for commenting. Do this for each PERTINENT file. Reboot.

[Bug 511379] Re: Jockey fails to install Broadcom STA wireless driver (BCM4311)
same problem: 11.04, jockey couldn't install the broadcom driver. I tried the goto solution, according to the link he posted, didn't work ( still don't know how to compile drivers). The Mike solution worked for me, but what I did was slightly different: - Enter Synaptics; - wrote bcm, and found all the broadcomm related things and checked to erase them; - restart; - went again to hardware instalation ( auf deutsch treiber) and checked the broadcom to install. - restart; After restarting, the wlan was working as it should. Feedback note: I just realized it wasn't work today, 10 days after I formated (again) the notebook. Interesting was, that my wlan was working fine before, without this complication. ( I installed 11.04 in May, no upgrade ). This time, the problem happend. Blind shot for the problem: During the instalation I choosed to download important features during the installation. Otherwise, I don't remember doing anything different. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/511379 Title: Jockey fails to install Broadcom STA wireless driver (BCM4311) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/511379/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The same problem on my Dell Inspiron 1545, which is running Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01) according to lspci. I SOLVED this problem using the guide from Broadcom: http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README.txt (see at the bottom under Ubuntu). I think this is the same solution given by Stanley. The weirdest thing about this bug is that IT DID NOT HAPPEN WHEN I RAN THE LIVE CD. Probably means that Jockey needs to recompile the bcm kernel (which isn't really a problem when running from a thumb drive). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/511379 Title: Jockey fails to install Broadcom STA wireless driver (BCM4311) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 511379] Re: Jockey fails to install Broadcom STA wireless driver (BCM4311)
I reinstalled 11.04 from the live DVD, without connecting to the Internet, thinking that the proprietary Broadcom STA driver would install from the DVD. But that didn't help. When I rebooted after installation, and tried to activate the proprietary driver, the driver installer said that the drivers were not installed and insisted that I connect to the Internet, and after I plugged in, it downloaded the driver profiles and found the Broadcom driver, but got the same error. If there's a way to install the driver that is on the CD and DVD, that would be a work-around until the driver repository is fixed. I don't know how to force that installation, however.

[Bug 511379] Re: Jockey fails to install Broadcom STA wireless driver (BCM4311)
I went to Synaptic from the System Settings dialog, searched for bcmwl. It found the kernel source for the Broadcom. Then I marked that source file for reinstallation, applied, and after it finished reinstalling, I rebooted. The driver now works. (I may have had to activate it first, don't remember, but if it isn't working, then install the driver either from system settings or by clicking on the icon when the top panel displays the restricted drivers icon.) I don't understand why re- installation of the source works from Synaptic, but the initial activation didn't work.

[Bug 511379] Re: Jockey fails to install Broadcom STA wireless driver (BCM4311)
Same problem on Ubuntu 11.04. From the desktop live CD running to try it out, the system recognizes that it needs the Broadcom STA driver and installs it from the CD, with no Ethernet connection plugged in. But after installing the OS onto the hard drive (with the Ethernet connection that it insisted upon before starting installation), the system gives the blacklisted error when it tries to install the wifi driver after reboot. I'm writing this bug report from that computer with the live CD running and the Broadcom proprietary driver installed, so the driver on the CD is definitely ok.The repository where the actual installed hard-drive system looks must have a bad version of the driver, perhaps a regression to a prior version by mistake.
