broadcom 43224agn driver windows 10 dell

The kernel panics started all over again. I wiped my disk down and installed intrepid and set my system to use the new wl driver again. When I blacklisted the driver and reverted back to b43, no more kernel panics. The driver kept randomly causing kernel panics on my system. When the new broadcom driver was released, I manually compiled it and installed it.

The reason why I know its from the wl driver is because, I was using the b43 driver back on hardy. The kernel panic happens randomly, sometimes even during bootup. I haven't been able to get a picture of the kernel panic though. The new wl driver(Broadcom STA) randomly causes my Dell Inspiron E1505 to experience kernel panics. Testcase: Generic usage will sometimes cause panics. So this would yield bug fixes and ease maintenance. This would sync up the Hardy codebase with the Intrepid and Jaunty layout. The same code is intended to get ported to Hardy LRM. This is the backport of that driver for intrepid. Reported have been random crashes between 5 a day to only 1 every 4 days.įix: The latest driver from broadcom had positive feedback on Jaunty and has been released there. Impact: The current broadcom driver (wl.ko) seems to have several issues during operation.
