Kernel26-mainline (2.6.39-rc1), broadcom wont work.

Ok, so having another issue with my compy here.

I installed the mainline kernel (kernel26-mainline, 2.6.39-rc1) from the AUR, and now for some reason I cant get my wireless card to work in it, it works fine in the kernel26-lqx, and default kernel, but for some reason they do not want to work in the mainline one.


The package I am using for my Broadcom 4328 a/b/g/draft-n card is dkms-broadcom-wl.

Has anyone else been able to get this to work at all. If it helps I'm using Arch on a Macbook

You really shouldn't be using developmental kernels if you don't know what you are doing! Also -rc1 is old, -rc4 is out. You haven't provide enough information to get any help. It seems pretty clear by your post you got no idea how the kernel + modules work.
