[SOLVED] BCM43228 Not Working

[BusiPlay]

HELP! I have a fresh install of Linux Mint 17.1 , and enabled the broadcom wl drivers, but I can not see or join any networks. I updated my kernel and patched the fix from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php? ... st12989252, it looks like the drivers load, but still not love.

What can I do to diagnose/resolve this?

Thanks in advance!

Interesting option acpi_osi . Didn't know that one. That might solve a lot.
