Hi,
Thanks to Larry, Peter and Arthur for your help so far.
This is my latest effort.
I enabled debugging in the hotplug system this time, cuz I'm not convinced
about the firmware.
Anyway, you should be able to see for yourselves in the /var/log/messages
output below.
Steps:
1. in softmac-snapshot> make uninstall
make clean
make
make install
2. in bcm43xx-20060125> make uninstall
make clean
make
make install
As usual I get the odd warning about the links not being in the kernel
tree etc. But no errors.
3. in bcm43xx-fwcutter-20060125> make uninstall
make clean
make
make install
fwcutter -i ../802BG/bcmwl5.sys
fwcutter can cut the firmware out of ../802BG/bcmwl5.sys
filename : bcmwl5.sys
version : 3.100.46.0
MD5 : 38ca1443660d0f5f06887c6a2e692aeb
fwcutter ../802BG/bcmwl5.sys
This creates 15 firmware files, with the usual errors about microcode11
and old drivers. This is the driver that both winXP and ndiswrapper use.
make installfw (goes to /lib/firmware)
3. modprobe ieee80211_crypt
modprobe ieee80211
modprobe ieee80211softmac
modprobe bcm43xx
Again see the output below but no obvious errors that I can see.
4. ifup eth1
And again no go.
5. Whilst dhclient is still running I tried:
iwconfig eth1 essid woody
To no avail.
I get no SoftMAC ouput in dmesg or /var/log/messages
I get no activity led on the laptops wi-fi button.
(I make sure the hardware's switched on by booting into my 2.6.14 setup
first and using ndiswrapper)
>From what I understand from the /var/log/messages output below the
following firmware files are loaded and then removed.
bcm43xx_microcode5.fw added
bcm43xx_pcm5.fw added
bcm43xx_pcm5.fw removed
bcm43xx_initval5.fw added
bcm43xx_microcode5.fw removed
bcm43xx_initval5.fw removed
bcm43xx_initval6.fw added
bcm43xx_initval6.fw removed
Is this correct or is something going wrong?
Thanks
Simon
