Unwittingly activate wrong wireless driver and now cannot activate the correct one
- by Sumeth Chaochuti
I just installed Kubuntu 10.10 on my MacBook 3,1 and found no wireless connection. Using KPackageKit I activated Broadcom b43 because it had already been selected for me. When I subsequently tried to activate Broadcom STA, however, I was returned with an error. After reading Jockey log I removed the wrong driver and reinstalled all drivers so that I can activate the correct one. It hasn't work even though KPackageKit now shows that I have installed:
bcmwl-kernel-source
bcmwl-modaliases
broadcom-sta-common
broadcom-sta-source
According to the log it appears as if there are conflicts but I don't know how to rectify it. I'm completely new to the platform, just started using Kubuntu 2 days ago.
I'll appreciate any advice anyone can give. Thanks.
