I am using the wireless-dev kernel tree (2.6.21-rc6) on a PowerBook G4. I have a few questions about the bcm43xx-mac80211 driver that is in this kernel:
- apparently the latest wireless-tools package (29-pre17) is not even new enough for this driver (version 22 of WE for the driver vs. version 21 for the userland tools). I don't see the bitrate in the output of iwconfig. How can I find out the current bitrate that I am connected at? - any hope of making this driver work with NetworkManager? When I use it NetworkManager doesn't see any wireless devices, but I've been connected to my residential wireless network (WPA-Enterprise/TKIP) for a few minutes via wpa_supplicant and Debian's /etc/network/interfaces infrastructure with no major issues. Also if someone could explain the device naming logic to me--I have a 'eth2' that doesn't do anything and a wlan0_rename device that seems to be the wireless device--I'd appreciate it too. With the mainline bcm43xx my wireless radio was 'eth2' and there was no 'wlan0_rename'. Thanks in advance and great work on getting the Broadcom chips to work in Linux.
