Running rolling-core March 27, 2015
I cannot get my Wifi to work on my Dell mini 1010 netbook. It has the Broadcom 4312 chip.
It always works in other distros using the WL module.
When I create a blacklist file with the following, it doesn't do anything upon restart.
blacklist b43
blacklist b44
blacklist ssb
What package contains these modules, so I can uninstall them and get working with the WL module
Offline
As root user in terminal
[c]echo "install b43 /bin/true" > /etc/modprobe.d/b43.conf[/c]
[c]echo "install b44 /bin/true" > /etc/modprobe.d/b44.conf[/c]
[c]echo "install ssb /bin/true" > /etc/modprobe.d/ssb.conf[/c]
The boot messages may indicate the blacklisted modules are loading but if you check with lsmod they're not.

Now my wired ethernet does not work. I did not change anything else.
My ethernet controller is this:
Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E/RTL8102E Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 02)
BTW I won't be back online for a while (4 hrs) need to check in at work.

Slitaz network script only configures one interface.
If wireless is working, wired is down.
If wired is working, wireless is down.

Something seems wrong with the wl module.
Wifi tries to connect to my AP using the SSID I have here at home when booting Slitaz, but it never connects.
The message is "File not Found"
I only have one reference to wl in lsmod
Module Size Used by
wl 2395749 0
In Slitaz 4.0 when wl was loaded, I had 3 references to wl in lsmod
one was exactly as the one above. the second one was being used with 80211lib. the third was being used with libcrypt. I may not have the names exact for the second and third one from Slitaz 4.0, but there were 3 references to wl in its lsmod with working WiFi
I used "modprobe wl" in the terminal and nothing changed in the lsmod listing.
Below is a copy of lsmod in Slitaz 5.0 rolling-core after I issued: modprobe wl

My dell laptop has broadcom wifi,and ethernet so I install b43-firmware and use b43,b44,and ssb.
I installed broadcomm-wl check module deps:
root@slitaz:/home/tux# modprobe --show-depends wl
insmod /lib/modules/3.2.53-slitaz/kernel/net/wireless/lib80211.ko.xz
insmod /lib/modules/3.2.53-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/wl.ko.xz
After unloading b43,b44,and ssb I load wl which autoloaded lib80211
Modules loading correctly I get errors from terminal running [c]tail -f /var/log/messages[/c] and no wifi interface:

Reboot
Applications/System tools/Wifi configuration

I'll try that tomorrow.
What's wrong with wl?
It works in 4 other distros on this laptop/netbook
Offline
I uninstalled broadcom-wl
I installed b43 firmware attached to this thread.
Rebooted, Applications/Preferences/Wifi configuration (this tool is under Preferences on my slitaz)
There are no entries in Wifi configuration.
Next I commented out the 3 entries in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
# blacklist b43
# blacklist b44
# blacklist ssb
I also changed (in /etc/network.conf) "wlan0" to "eth1"
Neither one works.
Offline
OK, here goes.
The reason I wanted to get the 'wl' module working is because I have never gotten B43 working with this Broadcom 4312 chip.
All the way back to Debian 5, B43 didn't work on this computer.
wl was just released then and someone at Debian compiled the module from Broadcom's website, and with some re-configuring it worked for the 4312 chip.
Also, I may add, 'wl' works fine for me in Slitaz 4.0

Thank you for your reply mojo.
I installed broadcom-wl-5.60.246.2_3.2.53.tazpkg (as posted above)
rebooted, then Applications/Preferences/Wifi configuration. It is empty.
In the terminal below is: lsmod and /etc/init.d/network.sh restart
(I get the same error when booting Slitaz as shown in network.sh restart)

The modprobe wl difference:
lib80211_crypt_tkip 6186 0
wl 1936301 0
lib80211 2453 2 lib80211_crypt_tkip,wl
When I modprobe wl, lib80211 and lib80211_crypt_tkip auto-load.
My theory is your lsmod has no lib80211_crypt_tkip because of conflict from mac80211,cfg80211,and rfkill.
Remove (modprobe -r)and verify mac80211,cfg80211,and rfkill are not loaded with lsmod before you modprobe wl
After you modprobe wl, verify lib80211 and lib80211_crypt_tkip are loaded
Check the kernel has recognized the interface and created wlan0.
ls /sys/class/net
Nothing will work until you have wlan0
This version of broadcom-wl from 4.0 works on my laptop. There is no eth0 because my ethernet requires b44 and ssb which is blacklisted.
ls /sys/class/net -> dummy0 lo tunl0 wlan0
After loading wl config/restart network kernel messages:

lib80211_crypt_tkip doesn't load with wl when I modprobe wl
I modprobe lib80211_crypt_tkip after I saw in lsmod that lib80211_crypt_tkip wasn't loaded.
I have no wlan0 in /sys/class/net
A quick question: does rfkill kill the wifi radio? rf=radio frequency?
I wonder if the wifi switch on the keyboard could be causing these problems. It's located with the [F2] key.
