Hello,

I retrieved an obsolete MacBook Pro. I installed Xubuntu 16.04 in 32bits.

I have a small problem, the wifi card is a broadcom BCM 4331. On help sites, I found lots of drivers but not the one I need. Can you help me?

Thank you in advance

François

    Hello,

    According to this Debian documentation page, in your case you need to install the package
    broadcom-sta-dkms
    and its dependencies.

    Start by launching a terminal. In this terminal, type the following command to become root:

    sudo -s


    Then, continue the Debian tutorial from step 2. Indeed, unlike on Debian, the package is directly available, as shown by this page.

    Good luck
