Comment 15 for bug 776439

Here is the error. I'm running 32bit so I changed amd64 to i386.
Sorry I'm a total newb.

aleks@aleks-Lenovo-B560:~$ sudo dpkg -i
bcmwl-kernel-source_5.100.82.38+bdcom-0ubuntu4_i386.deb
dpkg: error processing
bcmwl-kernel-source_5.100.82.38+bdcom-0ubuntu4_i386.deb (--install):
 cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
 bcmwl-kernel-source_5.100.82.38+bdcom-0ubuntu4_i386.deb

but for amd64 i was getting

dpkg: error processing
bcmwl-kernel-source_5.100.82.38+bdcom-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb (--install):
 cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
