Hello! If I load bcm43xx and run iwconfig without bringing the interface up, I'm getting this in the kernel log:
SoftMAC: ASSERTION FAILED (0) at: /home/proski/src/linux-2.6/net/ieee80211/softmac/ieee80211softmac_wx.c:306:ieee80211softmac_wx_get_rate() It's an x86 system with the 2.6.20 kernel (actually, it's the master branch from the mb repository, which is wireless-dev before the 2.6.21 switchover plus broadcom fixes). The assert assures that the interface has a valid tx rate. But since the interface has never been up, the rate has not been assigned. Either softmac should tolerate rate 0, at least when the interface is down, or it should initialize the rate much earlier, perhaps in alloc_ieee80211softmac(). I can test another tree, e.g. wireless-2.6, if there are chances that the problem has been fixed. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
