I just installed Kubuntu 10.10 on my MacBook 3,1 and found no wireless connection. Using KPackageKit I activated Broadcom b43 because it had already been selected for me. When I subsequently tried to activate Broadcom STA, however, I was returned with an error. After reading Jockey log I removed the wrong driver and reinstalled all drivers so that I can activate the correct one.
I'm having trouble connecting to my home's wifi network, i've run the sudo lshw -C network command, and since I'm on another computer I can't type it all out but here's some info:
*-network
description:Network controller
product: BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY
vendor: broadcom corporation
If any info is needed, ask, and I'll gladly provide it.
Hi,just installed ubuntu 9.10....however something's wrong.... it seems unable to activate my wireless driver (which is non-open source)Broadcom ST3.....when i go to "Hardware Drivers" and click on activate Broadcom ST3, ubuntu simply asks for a password and then does nothing! pls help!
thanks in advance
Ok, so this is my (anoying) problem
It's imposible to activate any Hardware Drivers (proprietary)
I just installed ubuntu, so i don't see why this would happen.
I haved installed ubuntu and activated drivers before.
But this time, just as soon as i click the ''activate'' button, it hangs in there, for ever, and for ever, for ever...
I have a dell inspiron 1525 32bits with ubuntu 11.04 gnome 2.32.1, processor architecture i686 and upgraded the kernel from 2.6.38-8 to 2.6.39. Everything appears to be fine except that I no longer have wireless. I tried to install the driver with 'Additional Drivers' and I see that the Broadcom STA wireless driver is no activated.
Since I do not have a computer of my own at the moment (using my family's computer) I do not have the ability to install Ubuntu on a hard disk so I'm planning on just running it from a USB for now. However, I cannot get wireless working on this USB (12.04.1).
I have recently have upgraded to Ubutnu 11.10 and I have not been able to activate by ATI Radeon Mobility HD5400 driver. I have been able to activate the ATI/AMD propreitary FGLRX graphics driver using the AMD wiki, but I cannot activate the (post-release update) driver.
I'm trying to install Ubuntu 12.04 on a HP Pavilion dm1 from usb.
While connecting to my wireless modem the proprietary drivers warning showed up.
