So I’m new to the forums, I’ve recently attempted to update my Manjaro build to test out the latest experimental Linux Kernel (5.16) and found that upon boot, no wifi symbol would show, and no networks were detected.
I went into the MHWD and tried to manually install/reinstall the wifi driver. Unfortunately that’s as far as I could get because it cannot install the 5.16 Drivers because “error: target not found: linux516-broadcom-wl”
I’ve installed several experimental kernels in the past to see how they performed for me compared to the stables, and the worst that happened was a few crashes here and there, so this is a newer one for me.
Either I’m missing something here or the “linux516-broadcom-wl” driver doesn’t exist yet or my system cannot find it? I’ve looked up the issue in several places and I haven’t seen anyone with this particular issue.
