I also have a new Dell 1545 with this problem. Just using live cd for now. Wireless worked ok on ubu 9.04 but not on 9.10 just as others have said.
My Dell calls the wireless 1397; dmesg | grep -i bcm says bcm4315, lspci | grep bcm says bcm4312 802.11 b/g rev 01. No typo, 4312 not 4315, go figure. Doing the install bcmwl kernel source gets the following modules into play: lib80211_crypt_tkip, and wl; in ubu9.04 it was ieee80211_crypt_tkip and wl. Wireless very good with these installed. I really believe this ought to get fixed. The hang-up here is rather nasty when the wrong drivers are loaded. -- Karmic Restricted Driver Bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/449268 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
