Dell Inspiron 1525 Ubuntu Drivers For Mac

  • Re: Change MAC Address on Inspiron 1525? SOLVED (sort of) Switched to Ubuntu 8.04 and got ndiswrapper going and used Step 2e from the Ubuntu documentation on getting wireless working.
  • For your Inspiron 1545, you need to install the Broadcom wireless drivers. Open up the Software Sources application click on the tab 'Additional Drivers' in the window that appears. You should see a list of available drivers.

I tried just installed Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on a colleague's Dell inspiron 1525 who wasn't happy with his previous os..

I tried to install the basic driver, with

Dell Inspiron 1525 Wireless Driver

Nevertheless, I can't access anything with it. No wifi, I can't neither enable-disable it using the switch on the right of the laptop. The blue led of the wifi is also of.

(2) I then tried, after having looked at the issue all over the internet, to purge the bcmwl-kernel-source, install firmware-b43-installer, and then run $sudo modprobe b43. (I'm using a wire actually)

This seemed to work at first, and the hardware switch is fully functional, and the led is on, but I can't see any wifi showing up, either if I look from the terminal or the GUI.

Very interestingly, the computer won't shut down when only the bcmwl-kernel-source is installed (I assume this is not a software or a driver, but I don't really know how to explain otherwise). Eee pc webcam driver for mac. It stays on the ubuntu logo with the 4 or 5 little dots. It shuts down pretty well after (2).

My wireless card :

Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter [14e4:4312]

and I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 32 bits

Of course the version is up-to-date.

I finally solved the issue after re-installing linux. Lg ge20lu11 driver for mac. I must have done something wrong when removing/adding things from the blacklist, following answers on forums.

I then had a new issue, I was locked in the login loop (The guest user desktop was working fine). I could solve this creating a new user (which was for me the easiest solution by far), now everything works fine.

Thanks anyway.
