ubuntu on macbookpro

My late 2010 Macbookpro cannot handle the newest OS-X (yosemite) anymore. So here we go Ubuntu. The installation is quite smooth until the WIFI part.

This is for Ubuntu 14.04. The Macbookpro has Broadcom bc43xx chipsets.

First you need to install/remove some  packages for the driver:

 

sudo apt-get remove bcmwl-kernel-source

sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer b43-fwcutter

Then you need to UN-block the bcm43xx driver:

sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

# blacklist bcm43xx

You will get some error messages, ignore them.

Finally, do this so when you restart your computer, WIFI is still there. Following this page:

sudo su

echo b43 >> /etc/modules

 

What happened to 24theory?

Some of you guys might wonder what happened to 24theory.com, why am I on this “4nums.com”.

Well, long story short, lawyer happened.

About two months ago, I got a  cease and desist letter from a lawyer representing a company that claims to own “24” on all mathematical software/game related things. The lawyer claimed that I cannot have 24 anywhere when naming my game.

I contacted an IP lawyer friend and was told that if I don’t want to put up a fight which cost money and time, I better just change the name. Well, I don’t want to waste money and time on a hobby website, so I changed all 24theory related stuff to 4 numbers (4nums.com).

Here you go, the same old math 24 game we all played even before that company existed, but with a different name (4 numbers) on this new website (4nums.com).

Have fun!
