From: Michael Buesch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The in-kernel bcm43xx driver only works with V3 firmware, whereas the experimental version that incorporates the d80211 stack requires V4 firmware. In bcm43xx-d80211, the fwpostfix module parameter is used to differentiate between the versions. In bcm43xx-softmac, this module parameter is only enabled when debugging is on. This patch makes the module parameter available unconditionaly, and should ease the future transition from softmac to d80211.
