[SOLVED] unable to upgrade - unresolved dependencies broadcom-wl

This what I get when I try to do a system upgrade. Does this mean I cant get any updates until an updated broadcom-wl is available ?

Is there any way I can get updates to the KDE packages in the meanwhile ? I tried shaman and removed the new verision of the kernel but it hangs and never goes beyond 0%

thanks in advance

Vikram

Re: [SOLVED] unable to upgrade - unresolved dependencies broadcom-wl

I had the same message on my Dell Mini 9 recently.

I upgraded to the latest version of broadcom-wl and then I could upgrade my kernel to .31.

Once that is done I had to reinstall the broadcom-wl module.
