Hi,
After some serious trouble with Plasma, I decided to re-install 9.10. When booting up, I noticed that the wireless light stayed on orange which usually means that the driver is not loaded. (And is has nothing to do with touching that light on the keyboard
)
I have a Broadcom 4312 in a HP Pavilion dv6. I checked the repository but no driver shows up. I seem to remember that is was there....some time ago.
Can someone point me to it?
Help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
