It could also be a firmware issue. If the correct firmware is not getting loaded to the card, then it will not function. (Broadcom has had a number of cards that require proprietary firmware blobs or have in the past.) There have been various hacks to cut the firmware blobs out of Windows drivers for use in Linux. "ethtool -i <devicename>" will also tell you the driver. https://blog.quarkslab.com/reverse-engineering-broadcom-wireless-chipsets.html has some interesting information. Searching for the model number of the card will also give you information of what you have to hack to get the card working. perl -pe 's/^\s+//g' *.py _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
