    Question Linux-phc breaks wifi

    The Linux-phc kernel, available here, for 10.04, used to work fine for me, but starting awhile ago, it broke the wifi. I can't enable the broadcom driver, it says,

    Sorry, installation of this driver failed.

    Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log

    This log says:

    When booting the normal kernel, wifi works fine.

    I noticed when it is started up normally, the network connection info says the driver is "wl"... So is this a bug in wl or linux-phc??
