I'm trying to enable Broadcom B43 wireless drivers in a new KDE 4.1 installation, but when I check the "enable"-box, a message that says that adept is currently in use show, and when I press "yes" to solve the problems automagiclly it just crashes. What can I do to solve this, and install the needed drivers?

Re: Database locked - Adept Batch-error
Either you've got Adept or synaptic still open, or the dpkg database is locked. Make sure Adept and Synaptic are closed, then issueand it should be OK.Code:sudo dpkg --configure -a

Nope, no progress. Everything happend the way it should and the drivers are marked as in use, but the network manager still doesnt find my home network.Comment

Re: Database locked - Adept Batch-error
OK, the good news is, it's not an Adept problem.
And it sounds like the Broadcom driver may actually be working, so that's more good news.
Search on knetwork-manager -- there have been many, many posts on this forum. I don't happen to use wireless on Kubuntu, so I'm pretty useless on that front.

I tried Wicd, but now I cant use internet at all... Gonna try some other things later, but it looks like I will go back to Ubuntu
