Broadcom covers a lot of turf. Dell covers a lot of turf.
Guess what.
He never mentioned anything about what kind of laptop (model number so we could google it). Broadcom chip (so we could google it), anything that can help us assist as far as I can tell.
I know a MX-14 cd will have some kernel support for broadcom wireless.

But from what posts I have been reading here. The Linux-Lite cd also comes with broadcom modules in a live session and only breaks after a upgrade or install. So not sure what to say.

I am sure it can be fixed using Linux Lite as he desires. He is on this forum too so I sent him a PM from this forum because I do not have a Google account. Maybe someone with a Google account can post under the video that this forum is where the answer can probably be found. 8)
Left Mac OS X for Linux in Jan 2014
I think this may have happened to me as well when I tried Lite from a usb. Worked on a CD though. Hmmm.

BTW
Someone sent me a link to the new 317 kernel on my main desktop, installed it and it busted my machine totally, not a problem cause I could boot using old kernel at boot screen, but a normal user would have been pissed, just so u all know. Would be nice to have a kernel install/upgrade utility in LL2.0.
