kernel 6.7.1 not loading module broadom-sta (wl)

#1 Post by cgecastro »

Installed experimental kernel 6.7.1 amd64 and broadcom-sta, does not load.
when i

Code: Select all

modprobe -v wl
i get:

insmod /lib/modules/6.7-amd64/updates/dkms/wl.ko.xz
decompression failed with status 6
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'wl': Invalid argument

broadcom-sta is version 6.30.223.271-24~exp1 also from experimental

the same driver loads fine with 6.6 and 6.5 kernels

on 6.6 if i modprobe wl i get

insmod /lib/modules/6.6.13-amd64/kernel/net/wireless/cfg80211.ko.xz
insmod /lib/modules/6.6.13-amd64/updates/dkms/wl.ko.xz
