Ken --
When you go into Yast > Network devices > network settings and edit BCM4312 (mine is 4312 and not 4321), on the hardware tab, do you have wl in the drop-down? I did when it worked, but no longer. Thanks
Yes i do. You did install broadcom-wl from packman didn't you. You'll need to also install the kmp version that matches your kernel flavor.
Aha -- "kernel flavor" turns out to be the reason it worked sometimes and not always after a reboot. Somewhere along the line the "Desktop" kernel was added to the grub menu -- and made the default. Wireless worked with the regular kernel (which has broadcom-wl installed) but not with Desktop (which I assume does not). Changing the default in grub to boot with the regular kernel means that wireless works all the time (at least for the present, says the optimist). Thanks to one and all for the help! Couldn't have done it without you. -- Fr David Ousley davidousley@verizon.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
