I need to install any working driver for wireless for this laptop, however, after re-installing bcmwl-kernel-source which was installed with OS, I get this:
modprobe wl
FATAL: Error inserting wl (/lib/modules/3.5.0-25-generic/updates/dkms/wl.ko): Invalid argument
this driver previously worked but I was trying to get some alternative, because this driver is proprietary and didn't work with kerne
Wow, this one feels like a rite of passage for my linux skills. It took lots of time, but I got it.
Many thanks to all who contributed info over the years on these odd chipsets.
The core of the solution is here:

I wanted to automate the installation of network driver on kernel upgrade. So I followed instructions from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=835573. And created below script.
#!/bin/bash
echo "Building Network driver after kernel upgrade for $1" >&2
pushd /home/iadmin/Desktop/e1000e-2.0.0/src
make install BUILD_KERNEL=$1
popd
And looking at the logs it worked fine.

ubuntu 12.04 kernel 3.5
I have had a tread about this matter before. Still I am not able to make the copy of the drivers.

Will I be able to use a driver copied from a kernel 3.5 on a computer running kernel 3.2?
The webcam suddently worked, maybe because the computer is a 3.5 kernel.
Hardware: BCM 4312 802.11b/g
Broadcom and I have pci_14e4:4315
U all know where I might be able to download the appropriate driver and there so I can try to install it with NDIS? Just trouble shooting my wireless.
I've been trying to get my wireless working for two weeks now. I have 1814:3290 wireless card. I am on Linux Mint 14 64-bit. I have tried all the suggestion on here:

I updated my kernel to 3.8.5-030805-generic.
hi there, i've had to go all the way up to kernel 3.8 to get my much desired hd-audio passthrough working with my intel hd4000 in a mac mini late 2012 quad core i7.
I'm on ubuntu 12.10 with kernel 3.8.0 generic.
Unfortunately it means that the fix in this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2078320 which worked in earlier kernels, no longer works for me, one of the devs over at xbmc
I had a previous post about "My Unity" and Epodx64 said to try the Intel xorg-server for the i9xx driver package to maybe solve my resolution problem.
This is my post for the "My Unity" problem.
