Hi,
I'm working on a Efika powerpc card with a pci WMP54G card (BCM 4306)j. I
tried the 3 kernel drivers (b43xx, b43 & b43legacy). Only the b43legacy one
seems to work with my card.
lspci -vn :
00:18.0 0280: 14e4:4320 (rev 02)
Subsystem: 1737:0013
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
Memory at 80000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2
modprobe b43legacy :
b43legacy-phy0: Broadcom 4306 WLAN found
dmesg :

of Wireless Extension, while this program supports up to version 20.
Some things may be broken...

I also put the V3 firmware on /lib/firmware with b43-fwcutter but it seems
not to be found, when i try an ifconfig wlan0 up dmesg gives me :
b43legacy-phy0 ERROR: Firmware file "b43legacy/ucode4.fw" not found or load
failed.
b43legacy-phy0 ERROR: You must go to
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware and download
the correct firmware (version 3).
I also tried to put it on /lib/hotplug/firmware, /usr/lib/firmware,
/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware and it's juste the same !
Someone to help ?
thx,
Francois
