@Eugene San, Thanks for preparing the package. I will give it a try -- although I had already manually patched my driver, and although I'm running 12.04.
One thing I don't understand is what the difference may be between the version of saucy vs raring vs quantal vs precise. The "core" of the driver is kernel independent, while the rest of the driver depends on the kernel version (as we all have painfully experienced :). But what can possibly be the dependence on the Ubuntu version? We have now 2 or 3 bcmwl versions available for each Ubuntu release, causing an enormous number of (duplicate) bug reports which are all mixed around throughout launchpad. And then we get fixes which only apply to a specific version (e.g. driver fixed for kernel 3.9 but only for raring and saucy, but not for precise or quantal). We have ONE SINGLE driver, which needs patches for each kernel. That's already messy enough. Given that we have patches for each kernel from at least 3.2 all the way (now) to 3.9, it would be nice if there was a single .deb for all releases. This way we could all focus our efforts in fixing or improving this one driver. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1157880 Title: bcmwl-kernel-source 6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu6: bcmwl kernel module failed to build on kernel 3.9 [wl_cfg80211.c:2025:3: error: too few arguments to function ‘cfg80211_put_bss’] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/1157880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
