Thank you. I didn't know compat-wireless. Unfortunately I haven't been able to make it work: b43 doesn't recognize my wifi card. I tried compat-wireless-2008-04-05 without the b43 patch. On boot, b43 isn't loaded automatically (by udev) as usual. If I load it with modprobe, I just get the following message: > Broadcom 43xx driver loaded [ Features: PML, Firmware-ID: FW13 ] No card appears. # With compat-wireless: $ grep b43 modules.* modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev0D* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev0B* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev0A* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev09* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev07* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev06* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev05* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev04* b43legacy modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev02* b43legacy modules.dep:/lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/compat-wireless/drivers/net/wireless/b43/b43.ko: /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/compat-wireless/drivers/ssb/ssb.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/kernel/drivers/pcmcia/pcmcia.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/kernel/drivers/base/firmware_class.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/compat-wireless/net/mac80211/mac80211.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/compat-wireless/net/wireless/cfg80211.ko modules.dep:/lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/compat-wireless/drivers/net/wireless/b43legacy/b43legacy.ko: /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/compat-wireless/drivers/ssb/ssb.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/kernel/drivers/pcmcia/pcmcia.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/kernel/drivers/base/firmware_class.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/compat-wireless/net/mac80211/mac80211.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/compat-wireless/net/wireless/cfg80211.ko # Without compat-wireless: $ grep b43 modules.* modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev0D* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev0A* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev09* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev07* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev06* b43 modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev05* b43 modules.dep:/lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/b43/b43.ko: /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/kernel/drivers/base/firmware_class.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/kernel/drivers/ssb/ssb.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/kernel/net/mac80211/mac80211.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24.4-1/kernel/net/wireless/cfg80211.ko JM _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
