BCM Driver Install

[zack...@gmail.com]

I've been trying to install the drivers for my bcm4352 but I\ve been unable so far. I'm on 3.2 rc2. Here's what I'm trying to do:

su -c 'dnf install http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm'
dnf install akmod-wl kernel-devel

However I get "No package aknod-wl available"

Is your TemplateVM set to allow allow connections to RPMFusion's servers? You
should be to do this either by enabling the RPMFusion repo or by allowing all
connections for N minutes.

Update on this, in trying to add bumblebee to this I get the same error with those packages so I believe that the repos are not getting added. Any idea as to why? I am running all of this on the sys-net terminal

[zack...@gmail.com]

Aren't connections allowed by default on the sys-net? Am I doing all of this on the wrong vm? I'm trying to get this working for dom0

Ah, sorry. I misunderstood the original message (thought you were trying to
install something in a TemplateVM).

Yes, by default, all connections should be allowed from the default sys-net.
Are you sure that the package actually exists in the repo?

Yes, it should exist based on everything I've read. I've also tried adding the bumblebee repos (which the files definitely exist there) and I'm getting the same errors which is why I believe that the repos aren't actually being added

Let's step back for a moment.

1. You're doing all this from the sys-net terminal just to check whether the
packages are available (because all connections should be allowed from
sys-net) and/or temporary install the packages to test compatibility or
something, right? You're not actually attempting to install a package in
sys-net with the intention of having it persist there, right?

2. You said you're trying to get this working for dom0. Normally, you'd
install the drivers for a Wi-Fi device in the TemplateVM on which the NetVM is
based, not dom0. Are you doing something special, such as trying to force
network access in dom0? If you actually wanted to install a package in dom0,
you'd use qubes-dom0-update, e.g.,

$ sudo qubes-dom0-update <package-name>

3. How are you attempting to add/enable repos? The first place I'd check is
/etc/yum.repos.d/ .

Oh duh, that's why it's not persisting. I'm trying to install the wireless drivers and bumblebee (for my nvidia card) on the dom0. So I do all of this on the fedora template?

[zack...@gmail.com]

Ok, so I got it installed on the fedora template. I had to do the additional step of enabling the repos as they were disabled by default. After this though, when I try modprobe wl, I get "Module not found in directory /lib/modules/4.4.14-11.pvops.qubes.x86_64|
