This is the chipcommon core, not the wifi core. 0x812 is the wifi core, the uCode version depends on the wifi core revision. If this card is supported by 3.xx drivers, (it should be since the card is in the good chip list), it uses uCode 5 which is uploaded on wireless core revision 5 or newer. On the 4.xx drivers, which I'm working on right now, Rev 3 and under are not supported. Rev 4 use uCode 4. Rev 5-0xA use uCode 5 Rev 0xB and up use uCode 11. - -Joe -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEs9fAwGq7BLLARfoRAiXzAJ9yB5ok/8t0UBgo6W2bvRBjgdADsQCgmhhg b8CEeCBVpy+o4LXQPk8rv58= =QRiM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] http://bat.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
