Bcm4312 Linux Driver Download

That DID work, and got my wifi going. However, I am not knowledgeable enough to really understand this whole business with the linux-image and linux-headers. I don't know what that is doing, and whether it might not apply correctly in Devuan, or in some way compromise my Devuan install. Man, an awful lot of lines went flying by in the terminal in order to execute that command! Anyway, do you know if that command was appropriate in Devuan? If it may have caused any damage, I will do a complete re-install and find a more appropriate command to get the wl driver.

Once you have downloaded your new driver, you'll need to install it. In Windows, use a built-in utility called Device Manager, which allows you to see all of the devices recognized by your system, and the drivers associated with them.

I installed Debian Wheezy on my netbook a couple of days ago and forgot to install the Broadcom wifi drivers, while I still had wired access. Now, this morning in the comfort of my bed I wanted to get online from my netbook and realized I have no working wifi on it. Luckily, I happened to have a second laptop with working wireless with me to use as the package downloader, downloaded the required packages to USB drive and copied them to my netbook.

An Internet connection is the ideal way to install the broadcom-wl driver; many newer laptops with Broadcom cards forgo Ethernet ports, so a USB Ethernet adapter or Android tethering may be helpful. If you have neither, you will need to first install the base-devel package during installation. Then, use another Internet-connected computer to download linux-headers and the driver tarball from the AUR, and install them in that order.

Oh, of course, thanks! So I did the patch and could install the driver.I was trying to do that because this driver is consuming too much battery. While I download some files powertop shows me that:

If your device has an Ethernet connection, the easiest method is to use an Ethernet cable and physically connect your PC to your router. Most (but not all) Ethernet adapters will be automatically detected. Once connected, you can download Bodhi Linux updates and/or specific drivers as needed.

By far the easiest method to install drivers while connected to the internet, i.e. online. If your laptop/PC has Ethernet capabilities and you can also connect directly to your router using an Ethernet cable, then the strong recommendation is to take the online approach. If you have no alternative, then use another laptop/PC/phone to download the files and transfer them USB Cable/USB Drive to the laptop.

first of all i'm a linux newbie. it seems that i don have the b43-fwcutter any more, so i guess my first post is not a bug report!!at the moment i posted it i had the b43 under the hardware drivers menu.i was desperately searching for a solution to make my wlan working. so i tried a lot.

because hardy in development state is't properly no out of the box solution. but for the human's like me who can't wait.i uninstalled the b43-cutter and used this package un downloaded the windows driver from my laptop manufacture. extracted it with carbextract, and installed it whit the program (in my case HP vista drivers 1.6.inf didn't work for me bud the xp drivers 1,5.inf did the job.)
