Special case #1: This device uses the driver combination bcma and brcmsmac. It shouldn’t be necessary to install anything at all. Required firmware is installed by default in the package linux-firmware. In a few cases, it is necessary to blacklist b43 and ssb :
sudo -i
echo "blacklist b43" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
echo "blacklist ssb" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
exit
In some cases, blacklisting ssb will disable your Broadcom ethernet card. Post a new question for help.
Special case #2: Probably only working in 64-bit only. See:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/17510...stro-3460-3560
Special case #3: Use bcmwl-kernel-source for kernel version less than 3.8; check with the terminal command: uname -r. For kernel versions 3.8 and later, use brcmsmac. Also see Special case #1.
