bcm4312 not installed module in kernel and not work
try to activate the wi-fi card that comes integrated in my netbook, use broadcom's BCM4312 firmware, try to follow the steps of slackware wiki and some forums, but nothing that explains there works, because I could also find out that the kernel that provides slackware does not have integrated or compiled the module that corresponds to this broadcom firmware, and I see that many people complain about this problem and as end users we do not understand much about this, nor do I believe that we are obliged to know a topic of this nature to depth, even more, when slackware does not explain how to solve it easily and assume that every user has a very high level and skills to deduce solutions and apply them
I think it's a [removed] from slackware and its developers to invite you to use your distro and not give you the possibility to document in a censilla and manageable way, so that you interest in this distro, until it seems that they do it in the form of mockery and elitism.
try to read about such an alien bob and its wiki, but I realized that its domain is simply HTTP: // and does not show the already known HTTPS: // that gives you the confidence to be a safe site, so if you think to tell me I forgot to risk my poor and miserable team that helped me to go to school to be hacked or stuck with spyware and malware.
if that bob alien is so good, because his pages are not https: //

because I could also find out that the kernel that provides slackware does not have integrated or compiled the module that corresponds to this broadcom firmware

I prefer to change the forum or distro and if I confirm you use a wiki address that is not htps: // and that does not look good anymore and I do not have to silence my opinion about the slackware maintainers, or maybe you are one of those Do you plan to subject the community to an autocracy?

All you've done is open four threads to rant and rave about how insecure things are, how bad alienbob is, and how things aren't supported/available to your liking. If you don't like things, then contribute the code/programming/testing needed to make it better. Have an opinion? Great...get a blog and post it there.
With the attitude you've displayed here, I doubt folks are going to be lining up to assist you with anything.

try to activate the wi-fi card that comes integrated in my netbook, use broadcom's BCM4312 firmware, try to follow the steps of slackware wiki and some forums, but nothing that explains there works, because I could also find out that the kernel that provides slackware does not have integrated or compiled the module that corresponds to this broadcom firmware, and I see that many people complain about this problem and as end users we do not understand much about this, nor do I believe that we are obliged to know a topic of this nature to depth, even more, when slackware does not explain how to solve it easily and assume that every user has a very high level and skills to deduce solutions and apply them
Just like I told you in your first post when you hi-jacked someone else's thread: you can simply inform us of your problems, tell us what you already tried, and what you are trying to achieve. If you have seen error messages, share them. The more information you share, the better will the answers be.

I think it's a shit from slackware and its developers to invite you to use your distro and not give you the possibility to document in a censilla and manageable way, so that you interest in this distro, until it seems that they do it in the form of mockery and elitism.
On the other hand, if all you can do is moan, whine, and insult, how do you expect people to react? We treat babies like babies. We treat grown-ups with respect.

try to read about such an alien bob and its wiki, but I realized that its domain is simply HTTP: // and does not show the already known HTTPS: // that gives you the confidence to be a safe site, so if you think to tell me I forgot to risk my poor and miserable team that helped me to go to school to be hacked or stuck with spyware and malware.
if that bob alien is so good, because his pages are not https: //
You contradict yourself by posting the link to my wiki which clearly starts with "https://". You will get a certificate error which is to be expected since I use the original free CA (https://cacert.org). The Mozilla, Google and Microsoft browsers do not support this SSL Certificate Authority because they can not control it (because it is based on individual trust and face-to-face confirmation of identities).
So stop [removed] me.

Looks like your wireless card is working properly but you lack the knowledge to make it associate with your Wireless Access Point. Use NetworkManager to set that up, it will make life easier for you. Both KDE and XFCE have a system tray widget that allows graphical configuration and monitoring.
Just make sure that you do not have any configuration for wlan0 in the file "/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf" so that this script does not interfere with NetworkManager.
Then set the NetworkManager boot script to executable, reboot and login to an X desktop session to configure the wireless:
Code:
chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.networkmanager
End of communication. You will not hear from me again.
