2018-10-10 02:42:06 Daniel van Vugt summary [regression] Cosmic ISO contains no working wifi driver for Macbook Air Macbook Air wifi driver (bcmwl-kernel-source) is not active in a live session till you run the installer
2018-10-10 02:43:09 Daniel van Vugt description Cosmic ISO (20181004) contains no working wifi driver for Macbook Air. In previous releases it contained package bcmwl-kernel-source for the 'wl' kernel module but not any more. Is that intentional?
