Issue #1148 has been updated by swildner.
Before this gets relevant, someone needs to port the bwi(4) to the current 802.11 framework and hook it back into the build. ---------------------------------------- Bug #1148: BCM4311 wireless network adapter detected but not functional http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/1148#change-12450 * Author: archimedes.gaviola * Status: In Progress * Priority: Low * Assignee: * Category: Driver * Target version: 4.2.x ---------------------------------------- Hi, I have a mini-PCI wireless network adapter on my laptop that wasn't detected on DragonFly 2.0.0 during installation. Since it wasn't detected, what I did is performing the steps in the bwi(4) manual http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/cgi/web-man?command=bwi§ion=ANY and download the firmware at http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~sephe/bwi/v3.tbz. Now, the driver were detected (Broadcom BCM4311) but seems not functional. It doesn't show up after invoking ifconfig. Below is the dmesg output: device_probe_and_attach: bwi0 attach returned 6 Preloaded elf module "/modules/if_bwi.ko" at 0xc07b93c8. bwi0: <Broadcom BCM4311 802.11 Wireless Lan> mem 0x31300000-0x31303fff irq 11 at device 0.0 on pci1 bwi0: BBP: id 0x4311, rev 0x2, pkg 0 bwi0: MAC rev 13 is not supported bwi0: no MAC was found And as I try looking at the /usr/src/sys/dev/netif/bwi/if_bwi.c code, BCM4311 is part of the supported device { PCI_VENDOR_BROADCOM, PCI_PRODUCT_BROADCOM_BCM4311, "Broadcom BCM4311 802.11 Wireless Lan" }, Thanks, Archimedes -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
