Old 32-bit Dell Inspiron 1300. 18.04.5 Kubuntu Installing with 3rd-party software, LAN wire maybe fell out. Got more updates, i915 kernel module missing.

So maybe lan wire fell out, because after install, i got no internet, plugged in, added partner repo, double checked update and dist-upgrade and got updates with this error. Maybe in install time taking updates, something got dissconnected and not fixed automatically, so i got left with something out.

All "W:"s are just warnings, you can ignore it. Probably you need to install `firmware-b43-installer` and `broadcom-sta-dkms` packages for Wi-Fi support.
in flag
@N0rbert that, thouse 2 packages, didnt change anything still after reboot. Still no wifi. Found also b43-fwcutter for 32-bit. But why after installing and downloading all, i still had kilogram of updates available? Maybe since checkmarked one more apt list, i think universe or something that was available. So now my lan also was not working, removed all except 32 bit b43-fwcutter i left. But nothing of this gave wifi, only lan showed red. Made 2 reboots. Then removed b43 64 bit packages. Got back lan. Theres also firmware-b43legacy-installer. Ill try to isolate what could get wifi.

@N0rbert also with all thouse packs installed- still have thouse errors. Even 2x, for each of cureently installed 2 kernels. This needs to be fixed in gnu/linux debian ubuntu

Unfortunately, Kubuntu 18.04 is [EOL](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-18-04-lts-bionic-beaver-reaches-end-of-kubuntu-support/). I'm surprised this hasn't been closed already.
in flag
@KGIII this how applies to this forum depending of EOL? even on support sites this is important and valid and fixable. Also this is 32-bit last 18.04 version. So its even more important to have fix for all old laptop that dont have 64 bits to have them usable not only for EOL but for Ubuntu LTS versions still 18.04 goes mid 2022, so need 2 fix, so people who dont use google can have good experience 2 fix bug #1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1 , and paid ESM 5 more years. https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle . This isnt ubuntu website, & even on ubuntu websites still should be fixed.

Kubuntu 18.04 LTS is EOL as are all *flavors* with 18.04; as the last [18.04.6 release annoucement](https://fridge.ubuntu.com/2021/09/17/ubuntu-18-04-6-lts-released/) states "*Maintenance updates will be provided for 5 years for Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Cloud, and Ubuntu Base*." where you'll note no *flavors* are mentioned being EOL already. Your question is on-topic here as covered by Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with KDE (not *really* Kubuntu as it's EOL). FYI: This also isn't a forum, but a Q&A site (https://ubuntuforums.org/ is the Ubuntu Forums)

Harware and packages can be used in any ver if fixed, so needs a automatic harware detection solution. Same package exists ready for next version, that trying to make perfect until locking, freezing EOL. Release cycle website shows free EOL will be 2023. Doesnt mean people need to stop using or having it as frozen ready to use out-of-box working 1st installation where things are already fixed for this 18.04 last 32-bit premade version. Otherwise i have learned a lot with ubuntu, but will need to go to debian, that doesnt have installation version restrictions. PS. Kubuntu needs then 32 18.04.6

You didn't read well; eg. https://fridge.ubuntu.com/2020/08/14/ubuntu-18-04-5-lts-released/ states "*Maintenance updates will be provided for 5 years for Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Cloud, and Ubuntu Base. All the remaining flavours will be supported for 3 years*". Five years didn't ever include *flavors*, all were 3 years many cycles ago but only 'main' repository software was extended to 5 years, ie. Ubuntu Desktop/Server etc but not flavors where packages are found in 'universe'. You can use `ubuntu-support-status` to get details on what is supported/isn't for your actual install

Ah, im just about that package will be existing in 20.04 and new ones still and that age is still valid, not so much about when, since now when im reporting this bug, then its still in LTS. But beeing precise im now reading again and so i think they mean not that from that post time 2020 + 5 years but changing from 3 to 5 years? Anyways still need to make this harware detectable and installable out of box or asking to install if detected. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1958038 ah, so command tells total 5 years, so even for distro still valid till 2023. 1288 (58.7%) packages supported.

5 year support included packages only on installation media of Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Cloud, and Ubuntu Base; ie. no 'universe' packages are included there. Universe packages have variable support lives (why Ubuntu media does **not** have it enabled by default) as package supported life in 'universe' can be 9-36 months supported (Ubuntu Studio 18.04 was **not** a LTS release thus only had 9 months of supported life; *Lubuntu Next* 18.04 with LXQt too had 9 months; only Lubuntu with LXDE was 3 years... All 'main' repo packages have 5 years; all flavor packages did not
in flag
Ah, so i found some command sudo apt policy packagename also then installers are then firmware-b43-installer and firmware-b43legacy-installer are multiverse, so can report and someone or if i learn, can make updates or new pack, & b43-fwcutter is in main, so then canonical engineers route debian packages to ubuntu main for LTS? I need all verses to be enabled allways. Im ok if i get warning messege on each install that maybe some support might not be anymore. Even with automatic pushing to each system latest code difference update packages. Why should even some verse be there, but not enabled?

Ah so in errors is help. Update showing.

And dmesg showing where is command modprobe b43 in https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware http://linuxwireless.sipsolutions.net/en/users/Drivers/b43/

So need to have errors with help to come up. Also need errors that come up, auto fixes this when getting info about firmware.

Looks like for me worked only this and reboot

sudo apt install firmware-b43-installer

it also installed the b43-fwcutter

maybe some need sudo apt install firmware-b43legacy-installer

then commands b43-fwcutter to see commands, but i used only b43-fwcutter -l to see list but didnt import them

Tested doing modprobe -r b43 and reinstalling 1st package all works on restart. Looks like in end also need, at one point i did it since i didint checked if it added firmware to modprobe automatically, if not, then can try

modprobe b43

maybe again

sudo update-initramfs -u -k all

reboot to check, since can show here still errors, but wifi maybe is already installed.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
