Easiest if you can arrange a LAN connection temporarily.
Without a connection, you'll need to download the listed packages and transfer them to your system.

Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
Hi! Good morning thanks for the fast answer.
I can connect but... I wanna learn how to do without LAN connection. Just offline .
When I try to install Debian say you have not installed gcc.
I check now this link.
Can I download gcc with all dependence’s?
Regards !

Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
If you like.
Maybe check out apt-offline.

Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
You'll have to install it first.
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/apt-offline
Other than that, I don't know as I haven't had the need to use it.

Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
I have that exact card, and the installation is very simple if you enable non-free repo:
or
That is with LAN connected.
Without LAN, you will need to somehow transfer the package and it's dependencies to your computer. No need for apt-offline, just use plain apt:
Code: Select all
apt install broadcom-sta-dkms
Code: Select all
reboot
Code: Select all
modprobe wl

Code: Select all
apt install ./<packagename>
Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
Hi guys thank you for the answers !
I know how to do with LAN connection, but i wanna practice dependencies etc...
Then.. If i download the package when i try for example: DPKG -i asdaeaw.deb (for example). Then i get an error... I need GCC. I install base 6 of gcc but nothing happens... Continue with error message...
Regards !

Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
One can also use a connected machine with the same kernel, module-assistant, and broadcom-sta-source to build debs of the driver. Then you just need to install the debs on the isolated machine. I've done this already in several threads here for users with this Catch-22, and the debs are still available for download.
Debs will end up in /usr/src.
Code: Select all
apt install module-assistant broadcom-sta-source
m-a prepare
m-a build broadcom-sta

- installing from packages (whether online or offline, they're the same packages, ending in .deb)
- installing from source, which often requires compiling, that's where gcc comes in.
last time i had to install a wireless driver offline, i did this:
1.
find the first package i need here:
https://www.debian.org/distrib/packages#search_packages
and download it manually.
look at its dependencies, and compare if they're installed already.
if not, download manually.
2.
move it all to a usb stick, go to the machine that needs the driver, and install with
Code: Select all
dpkg -i ....
Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
Thx, i do this... But debian say's me need gcc base 6... When i use:
Now i got this, but i can't transfer archive.sig to USB because is only read... Then i broke my debian... And first i should repair fstab.
Regads and thx !
Code: Select all
dpkg -i package.deb
Regads and thx !

Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
It's quite tedious to install all the kernel header and compiler packages you need to build on a isolated machine. Possibly you can use the multiple Debian DVD's as apt sources to get those.
If you have another fresh install with a connection, in exactly the same state as the isolated box, you can use Synaptic to generate a deb download script. Then you just run that script to download the debs, take them to the target box, install them, and then build the driver. But why do that when building the driver debs is much faster and easier on your connected machine?
But the contents of the script would be informative if you want to generate it and post the contents here...then anyone can see what packages they'll need to install.

Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
You probably need to update your local package lists to include the non-free section.

You could have just browsed the forum a little, there must be at least 100 times
the same :Attachments, How to post a screen shot and use code boxes
And 100+ times the same answer,..
Oh, and if you really must use a screen shot, do it right (correctly) , Please
use a thumb nail.
Please

Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
So, when you installed broadcom-sta-dkms, there was output in the terminal. Did it complete successfully, or did the build fail, as will happen when the compilers and headers are not installed, and has happened umpteen times on this forum? Try a reinstall:
Even better, build the driver debs, install them, and put them somewhere safe where you can use them in the future if needed.
Code: Select all
apt-get install --reinstall broadcom-sta-dkms

Re: Drivers broadcom 43142
Just for kicks, build the deb packages to make sure that your setup is actually working.
