Hello, I installed b43 and I get the error that DMA is not supported and it
will be switched to PIO. This was a bug on kernel 2.6, but I am using 6.1+. My
mac is partially supported according to
http://linuxwireless.sipsolutions.net/en/users/Drivers/b43/ and that may be
part of the problem, but:
I am on void linux and networkmanager can identify all the networks but if I connect I get errors
like "not found network" or maybe "bad password".
This is a fresh install and sometimes certain daemons just arent running, so
here is my list:
Dbus, dhcpcd, NetworkManager, udevd, wpa_supplicant as well as the
agetty-tty[1-6].

Your description of the problem is not terribly coherent, thus I will be
requesting some more information.
DMA should be supported. It certainly works on my PowerBook G4 with a ppc32
processor. I expect that a MacBook 7.1 has an Intel processor. If not, please
enlighted me.
I would like you to run the command 'dmesg > dmesg.txt' and post dmesg.txt on
some site where I can read it.
The b43 devices are certainly slow as compared to modern devices, but the one on
my PowerBook certainly works.
