Comment 6 for bug 462704

Hi, I installed Kubuntu netbook remix 9.10 on Dell Mini 10v. Wifi doesn't work "out of the box".
- At the first boot, after 1min the driver manager automatically shows the "Broadcom STA wireless drive" to install.
- I click to activate it, nothing happened, the drive manager (jockey-kde) freezes.

So, I connect to internet via LAN, and them:
- Tried to activate the Broadcom driver, but nothing, same behavior.

Them I tried to:
- Uninstall bcmwl-kernel-source and bcmwl-modaliases
- Open the drive manager and activate Broadcom. The download started, when the installation finished the driver was installed but the pc crash (black screen). When I reboot I get "Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)"

So, there something very strange here.

NB. I tried to install Broadcom during the live CD, but the pc crashs after Broadcom driver installation.
I also tried the live CD of Alpha 4 and Alpha 5, and I didn't have any problem, wifi works great.

Please fix it.
