I’ve installed fedora 40 on my jurassic Macbook 13 2011 and so far i’m in love with it. The only issue was the wifi. I’ve checked different posts and articles and in the end i’ve find this [https://darryldias.me/2020/linux-wifi-drivers-for-2012-macbook-pro-offline-method/] which worked… up to a point. When i turn off or restart the machine i have to use the comand “sudo modprobe -v b43” to enable the wifi each time.
Any idea?
I’ve find the instruction and installed it, but no changes. https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/fedora-linux-install-broadcom-wl-sta-wireless-driver-for-bcm43228/
That howto uses
sudo modprobe wlwhereas you usesudo modprobe -v b43Is it possible that the wl kernel module gets loaded ? You should be able to check withlsmodafter a reboot.
