segmentation fault Kali Linux 2.0 [solved]

Kali Linux 2.0,the well known Penetration testing distro contains a plethora for digital forensics tools and is widely used by ethical hacker community across the globe.It comes with over 650 tools pre-installed that help  perform tasks like network analysis, ethical hacking, load & crash testing etc. It is powered by Linux kernel 4.0 and has enhanced support for different graphics cards and desktop environments.However ,a small bug as I noticed running two regular commands as apt-get update and msfupdate. Used to get the segmentation fault error as seen below in the screen shot :

Resolved by running the following commands at terminal to open sources.list  file

root@kali:~# leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list

As the file opens, simply select all the existing content in the file and delete it.Further to it cut and paste the following lines in the file and save :  

# Regular repositories

deb http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib

deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security sana/updates main contrib non-free

# Source repositories

deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib

deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security sana/updates main contrib non-free

and now it should work just as it worked in my case as seen below :

Installing Broadcom drivers : Kali Linux

1.     This post will show the installation of Broadcom's official Linux hybrid wireless driver. Using a Broadcom wireless USB adapter gives us the greatest possibility of success in terms of getting our wireless USB access point to work on Kali.

2.    Open a terminal window and download the appropriate Broadcom driver from http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php

cd /tmp/

wget http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/hybrid-portsrc_
x86_64-v5_100_82_112.tar.gz

3.     Extract the downloaded driver using the following script:

mkdir broadcom

tar xvfz hybrid-portsrc_x86_64-v5_100_82_112.tar.gz –C /tmp/broadcom

4.     Modify the wl_cfg80211.c file since there's a bug in version 5.100.82.112 that prevents compiling the code under kernel version 2.6.39

vim /tmp/broadcom/src/wl/sys/wl_cfg80211.c

Look at the following piece of code at line number 1814:

#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE > KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 39)

Replace it with the following:

#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 39)

Save the changes.

5.     Compile the code:

make clean
make
make install

6.     Update the dependencies:

depmod -a

7.     Find loaded modules by issuing the following:

lsmod | grep b43\|ssb\|bcma

8.     Remove the modules found by executing the following command:

rmmod b43

Where could be b43 or ssb or bcma.

9.     Blacklist the modules to prevent them from loading at system startup:

echo "blacklist " >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

Where could be b43 or ssb or bcma or wl.

10.     Finally, add the new module to the Linux Kernel to make it a part of the boot process:

modprobe wl
