[Bug 1411899] [NEW] Latest linux kernel update breaks wifi

 

Public bug reported:

After updating to 3.13.0-44 the wifi is not present in the list of
available network interfaces.

lsmod reports that the bcmwl driver is loaded, but that has no effect on
the network manager.

The prior kernel 3.13.0-43 had a working wifi, and is the one I am using
at the moment.
