Hello,
thanks for the reply.
I did build the driver, using
wl-kmod-6_30_223_141-2.el6.elrepo.nosrc.rpm
<http://elrepo.org/linux/elrepo/el6/SRPMS/wl-kmod-6_30_223_141-2.el6.elrepo.nosrc.rpm>
and hybrid-v35_64-nodebug-pcoem-6_30_223_141.tar.gz
This resulted in kmod-wl-6_30_223_141-2.el6.local.x86_64.rpm
which I hope is the latest.
This results in a working network card, so that part went fine.
I guess the wpa_supplicant is maybe a different issue.
Greetings, J.
