</rant> (1) Would the IDIOTS at Ubuntu PLEASE turn debugging for ssb and b43 ON? It seems like a simple request, it doesn't generate much output, and it helps a lot. (2) Would people that are having trouble with Ubuntu systems please READ the summary of the list? I get really tired of answering the same question over and over. (3) Your udev renaming rules are F**CKED UP. The clue is that iwconfig shows wlan0-rename. In addition, as Michael said "you have the wrong firmware. If Ubuntu would get their heads out of their backsides and enable debugging messages, the firmware version would be plainly visible. (4) I'm NEVER answering any more question regarding Ubuntu systems until (1) is fixed. The b43 maintainers should not have to modify code just for Ubuntu!! </end rant> Larry _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
