After installing Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on my HP Folio 13 I cannot get wireless to work.
My kernel is 3.8.0-29-generic
and my wireless module is a Broadcom BCM4313.
After running rfkill list all
:
0: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: hp-bluetooth: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
2: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
The wired connection works fine. The driver activation for Broadcom STA wireless driver fails every time. in the log it says
FATAL: Module wl not found.
FATAL: Error running install command for wl
After running lspci -nnk | grep -iEA3 "(wireless|network|wlan)"
:
