You should get the 2.6.23 kernel from wireless-dev. It will have the b43 driver that is similar to bcm43xx-mac80211, but with a number of improvements. >> [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/lib/modules/2.6.22# clear >> [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/lib/modules/2.6.22# insmod bcm43xx-mac80211.ko; dmesg >> Linux version 2.6.22 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.1.2) #3 Thu Jul 26 >> 18:00:50 >> CEST 2007 >> CPU revision is: 00029008 >> ssb: Core 0 found: ChipCommon (cc 0x800, rev 0x0E, vendor 0x4243) >> ssb: Core 1 found: Fast Ethernet (cc 0x806, rev 0x09, vendor 0x4243) >> ssb: Core 2 found: MIPS 3302 (cc 0x816, rev 0x06, vendor 0x4243) >> ssb: Core 3 found: USB 1.1 Host (cc 0x817, rev 0x02, vendor 0x4243) >> ssb: Core 4 found: MEMC SDRAM (cc 0x80F, rev 0x01, vendor 0x4243) >> ssb: Core 5 found: IEEE 802.11 (cc 0x812, rev 0x09, vendor 0x4243) >> ssb: Core 6 found: Roboswitch (cc 0x81C, rev 0x02, vendor 0x4243) >> ssb: Initializing MIPS core... >> ssb: set_irq: core 0x0806, irq 2 => 2 >> ssb: set_irq: core 0x0817, irq 3 => 3 >> ssb: set_irq: core 0x0812, irq 4 => 4 >> ssb: Sonics Silicon Backplane found at address 0x18000000 ..snip.. >> bcm43xx_mac80211: Broadcom 5352 WLAN found >> bcm43xx_mac80211: Found PHY: Analog 2, Type 2, Revision 7 >> bcm43xx_mac80211: Found Radio: Manuf 0x17F, Version 0x2050, Revision 2 >> bcm43xx_mac80211: Radio turned off > Why is the radio off? The driver always turns the radio off during initialization and turns it on during the ifup step. This is normal. >> wmaster0: Selected rate control algorithm 'simple' >> wmaster0: Failed to initialize wep >> bcm43xx_mac80211: probe of ssb0:3 failed with error -12 I don't know what this means.

No, a rev 9 802.11 core uses b43. Only chips with a rev < 5 use b43legacy. When you change to b43, you will need to use b43-fwcutter. The firmware files have different names and occur in different directories than for bcm43xx varieties.
