After that I restarted my laptop and it doesn't work... :-( Can you help me, please? Hi, It should be ok (although I would recommend a 2.6.33 if you have the opportunity to find one already available). To help you further, I recommend you provide the output of these 3 commands: # dmesg | grep b43 # lsmod # iwconfig Cheers, Eric ___ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list Bcm43xx-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev

(maybe due to some black-listing in modprobe?) David, please do a modprobe b43 and rerun the 3 commands.

You should now be able to use the wifi (via NetworkManager for instance) :-) To get the driver automatically loaded, I would recommend you ask on a community who knows more about ubuntu, I highly suspect some kind of blacklisting in modprobe (because this hardware required the wl driver in older kernels).

I haven't tested with 9.10. Wait, moment. What did you say? Are you completely, really sure 14e4:4315 did work in Ubuntu 9.04 with b43? 9.04 comes with kernel 2.6.28. As far as we know 14e4:4315 is LP-PHY and we support LP-PHY from 2.6.32 kernel. Did you install some more recent kernel in your 9.04? I don't understand... maybe id is duplicated, and there are two cards with same ID and different PHYs? Please, try to explain this. Hi, Antti, maybe you could do a lsmod, to check if the wl driver is loaded. Eric ___ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list Bcm43xx-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev

What can I do to try to debug this? The problem is not general. I use b43 with a 4315 device with WPA or WPA2 without difficulty. Are you using NetworkManager? If so, look at /var/log/NetworkManager. If not, then you need to start wpa_supplicant separately with the -ddd option. I'm using Mandriva's network manager (which is basically just a frontend to wpa_supplicant). However, now that I try just with wpa_supplicant, it works fine! I'll investigate a bit further, it's probably a bug in the frontend.
