Re: fedora 12 wireless broadcom does not detect any networks.

yes. I did not install that kmod, but akmod has the source rpm inside and kmodtools installs correct rpm from that source. so when you reboot using a new kernel, at first time, that rpm is built and installed automatically.

Dear all,
using a laptop dell latitude E6500 I have a broadcom wireless card.
I installed these packages:
kmod-wl-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64-5.10.91.9.3-3.fc12.6.x86_64
akmod-wl-5.10.91.9.3-3.fc12.6.x86_64
broadcom-wl-5.10.91.9.3-1.fc12.noarch

then reboot. but I have not my wireless card enabled. and I get:

# modprobe wl
FATAL: Module wl not found.

what happens if you take out the kmod-wl-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64-5.10.91.9.3-3.fc12.6.x86_64 ? i would of thought all you need is the akmod
