Hello everyone, I tried without success to run b43 on a via (cpu) pc and I got a very strange behavior. Everything seems to work fine for a random time going from 60s to a multiple of 60s. Then dmesg reports that a direct probe failed and that b43 lost the connection to the AP.
I tried both ubuntu and slackware (thinking it could be due to ubuntu network manager) and always with kernel 2.6.29-rc2-wl, the same I'm using on all my development platforms (and I never got problems with). I had the same problem with a number of BCM adapters so it was not due to the wifi adapters. I took the same hardware and same kernel to other platforms not via based and the problem disappeared: the only difference was the VIA cpu instead of anyone else not VIA. If it can worth I can report more details on the VIA architecture I was using, but I don't know if there is anyone who cares about :-) Cheers, -FG _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
