The problem is that when Broadcom (open source) driver brcmsmac is installed the required firmware that is in package kernel-firmware is not installed by the installer. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.New installation in a system with a Broadcom 4313 (may be others) wireless card 2. 3. Actual Results: Wireless card is not detected after installation Expected Results: This wireless card is supported by the kernel and should work out of the box If after the installation you manually install the package kernel-firmware that is in the openSUSE repositories and restart the network system, the wireless card is already detected and works. This problem was already reported in 12.1 and marked as solved for 12.1 and 12.2 but at least in my PC it is still not working. It is "only" a question that when the installer detects and installs the driver brcmsmac, it must also install package kernel-firmware -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
