Got it! with these parameters it really works! the kernel is ubuntu 10.04 default 2.6.32-23-generic-pae, Then these parameters mean the haredware crypto functions cannot be utilized, all encrypt/decrypt calculations are using the main CPU, right? Then our remaining job is still to figure out how to make it work with enabling these parameters; without released documents from Broadcom, we can only do reverse engineering? from where to start? although maybe not an easy task, but I'd like a try; 2010/8/5 Gábor Stefanik <[email protected]>: > I see you are using Madwifi for the atheros card.

Sorry, that linux netbook with atheros is using linux 2.6.21.7, really old kernel I cannot update software on it because its storage is very limited, I cannot even install a compiler on it; (in fact, it's EeePC 701, the very first model, with Intel Celeron 900 MB, and only 4 GB SSD storage,) -- Cheng Renquan (程任全), from Singapore _______________________________________________ b43-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/b43-dev
