I'm trying to install Arch (real arch, this thing has an Intel Atom) on this chinese tablet that I had in a drawer.
Right now, its not detecting the WiFi card, that I don't know what it is. A quick search shows that in Windows is identified as "Broadcom 802.11n Wireless SDIO Adapter" but this tablet had Windows removed so I can't check that right now.
What solution do I have? As of right now, I don't have a USB network card.
ip link shows just the loopback
found something
linux-firmware-broadcom is installed
kubuntu has the same issue
according to https://wireless.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/en/users/drivers/brcm80211.html it should work right?
BCM43430

after trying multiple things, its impossible at least right now
you either get code -2 without the txt or -16 with the txt
