Hello,
I today upgrade from 9.10 netbook (HP 2140) to 10.4. Everything went
correctly except the network driver installation. This HP use integrated
wifi/bluetooth card, so can't use driver from generic kernel:
08:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)
When I rebuild driver using command:
dkms build -m bcmwl -v 5.10.91.9+bdcom
and later
dkms install -m bcmwl -v 5.10.91.9+bdcom
network start working. Looks like some upgrade scripts forgot update some
information or kernel hook not work when distro upgrade is in progress.
BTW - this is my first post. I use Linux (mixed distro) from '93, Ubuntu I
use from 3-4 years.
