I've never been that. I suggest that you unload b43 and ssb modules, then load ssb and look for messages. There should be a message like: ssb: Sonics Silicon Backplane found on PCI device 0000:02:02.0 If you don't see in in the kernel log, then it's the ssb module that doesn't want to work with your PCI card. If you see that message but loading b43 doesn't result in recognizing your card, then we should be looking why the wi-fi device one the ssb bus doesn't match any entry in b43. > # With compat-wireless: > $ grep b43 modules.* > modules.alias:alias ssb:v4243id0812rev0D* b43 It's better to use modinfo: modinfo ssb modinfo b43 -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
