Re: Advice needed Broadcom wireless packages

2013/4/27 Nicolas Viéville <nicolas.vieville(a)univ-valenciennes.fr Hi Nicolas, Do these kmod will works with kernel 3.8 ? While trying to solve rfbz #2721, I found on an Ubuntu PPA repository a compatible with Broadcom wireless devices. I think it's problematic to have beta or non-official release into fedora stable. If it move the problem from a sure crash, to a random crash, it doesn't worth the effort to have it in stable releases. What can be done instead, is indeed to hold the kmod into updates-testing to signal to the non-stable status of the driver. Also I wonder it isn't best to be back to ndiswrapper in some cases ? For now, you could state the different methods on the rpmfusion.org wiki and to point to the link from the RPM %description field. Also worth to state this is to explain how to rely on the firmware extracted from the windows driver. instead of relying on the free (this side should be handled in the fedora wiki actually).
