I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 and the Broadcom BCM43241 card in my vaio duo 13 doesn't even show up

you must copy the file called brcmfmac43241b4-sdio.txt to /lib/firmware/brcm where it accompagnies the driver called brcmfmac43241b4-sdio.bin.

Normaly this is created using nvram-tools but it does not work on the sony pro 13 and I copied one from the net. Your can download one from the net

    I have tried all the known solutions and it still won't work. I have tried the brcm modprobe after updating the firmware library as well as doing the blacklist thing for bcm43xx. Is there a fix for this??

    -------edit------

    The lspci -nn command wouldn't do anything lspci I cant post pictures yet but here is the output lspci

    How do you build/find/get the brcmfmac43241b4-sdio.txt file?
