I'm a newbie when it cames to linux and after some research I've decided that Mint was the best option but I'm having many problems trying to install the drivers for my wireless card that is a Broadcom 43142.
I was searching on the internet for several days trying to fix my problem, but with no change, it still doesn't work...
On the terminal I wrote this just to confirm the Wireless Card:
lspci -vnn | grep 14e4
03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM43142 802.11b/g/n [14e4:4365] (rev 01)
With that info I've searched for a Broadcom Wireless Table and I've found that the package for my Broadcom is the bcmwl-kernel-source
But when I run the command: sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source
I get:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
bcmwl-kernel-source : Depends: libc6-dev but it is not going to be installed
libc6 : Breaks: locales (< 2.19)
libc6:i386 : Breaks: locales (< 2.19)
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
And I've tried the command sudo apt-get -f install
and more errors:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Correcting dependencies... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
locales
The following packages will be upgraded:

And again, nothing seems to work..
Can you please help me? I want to leave windows and stay only with Linux but I need to solve this first...
