Hello,
I updated my Kubuntu and I still have problems with BCM4318 driver. Unfortunately I can not install any newer Ubuntu as my old notebook Amilo 8010 always freezes during booting of the live CD.
Can somebody know, what is wrong ?
I have following system:

I am not certain that this version of the firmware works with the 4318. You
might try an older version.

My system is too new to tell exactly what causes this error; however, I think it
comes from the wireless band not being set up correctly. Do you have CRDA
installed? I do not see any evidence of it in the dmesg output that you posted.

What is CRDA ? I will check logs. In the meantime, I succeeded to install newest Ubuntu with WiFi card switched off in BIOS. I found this "LiveCD freezing" problem on another forum and the solution was exactly to unplug the card. So now I can make experiments on the latest linux release as well. However, I don't know where to start after I enable the card in BIOS...
What older firmware do you recommend me and where can I get it ?
