Hi,

This the output of yaourt when I am trying to use it.

What card do you have? model + pci-id please (lspci -vv)
Also, upgraded the kernel but not rebooted yet?

Sorry I forgot to post that info my card is a BCM4322

and this is what lspci - vv gives me

Do a -Syu, reboot, then try to build the driver again.

Well I was able to get it installed and it I can see my card in Wicd now and am able to select a network but I'm unable to connect to any wireless networks. But I still am able to connect through the wired connection.

EDIT: Nevermind, a reboot seemed to of solved that issue. I am all up and running now.

Thank you very much for your help.
