Bug Description
Problem is actually with cfg80211 and CRDA:
Dmesg output:
[ 108.370194] cfg80211: Loading compiled-in X.509 certificates for regulatory database
[ 108.381953] cfg80211: Loaded X.509 cert 'sforshee: 00b28ddf47aef9cea7'
[ 108.416481] platform regulatory.0: Direct firmware load for regulatory.db failed with error -2
[ 108.416488] cfg80211: failed to load regulatory.db
[ 108.643561] Broadcom 43xx driver loaded [ Features: NL ]
I have spent a day putzing about with this, it was working on Xeniel, now Bionic has broken it.
I am trying to save an old lenovo laptop from the scrap heap. Maybe it belongs there.
I only have ethernet in the basement. It is cold down here.
