Comment 30 for bug 1556676

Do not gzip tar files? Every file manager on every desktop automatically opens the folder for you- just double-click on the tar.gz file in the file manager. Using a command line, tar xvfz (added the 'z' for zipped) extracts the folder. Adding the 'z' is hard? But, if that is what you want, I will stop zipping tar files in the future.

I followed those instructions. As I already noted above, there were bcmwl compilation errors due to a missing symbol - probably a version issue in gcc or something else on my 14.04.04 system.
