Package: linux-2.6 Version: 2.6.24-1 Hi,
It seems that the kernel does not select the proper driver for me. When booting a 2.6.22 (and .23) kernel, I see: bcm43xx driver PCI: Enabling device 0000:02:00.0 (0000 -> 0002) ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:00.0[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> GSI 10 (level, low) -> IRQ 10 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:02:00.0 to 64 bcm43xx: Chip ID 0x4306, rev 0x3 bcm43xx: Number of cores: 5 bcm43xx: Core 0: ID 0x800, rev 0x4, vendor 0x4243 bcm43xx: Core 1: ID 0x812, rev 0x5, vendor 0x4243 bcm43xx: Core 2: ID 0x80d, rev 0x2, vendor 0x4243 bcm43xx: Core 3: ID 0x807, rev 0x2, vendor 0x4243 bcm43xx: Core 4: ID 0x804, rev 0x9, vendor 0x4243 bcm43xx: PHY connected bcm43xx: Detected PHY: Analog: 2, Type 2, Revision 2 bcm43xx: Detected Radio: ID: 2205017f (Manuf: 17f Ver: 2050 Rev: 2) bcm43xx: Radio turned off bcm43xx: Radio turned off udev: renamed network interface eth1 to eth3 cs: IO port probe 0x100-0x4ff: excluding 0x4d0-0x4d7 cs: IO port probe 0x800-0x8ff: clean. cs: IO port probe 0xc00-0xcff: clean. cs: IO port probe 0xa00-0xaff: clean.

I notice some strange behaviours with this: - After the "udev: renamed network interface wmaster0 to eth3" it hangs for several seconds before doing something else. At that point something prints "done" on the screen which doesn't come from the kernel. (Manual modprobing b43 doesn't seem to cause this problem.) - When looking at the interface list I see a "eth3" that doesn't have wireless extentions, and a wlan0_rename that does. I also have 1 more device than I should. Reading http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 it says: "4306 and 4309 cards with a MAC core revision of 4 or less should also use b43legacy. [...] The kernel autoloader will automatically do the right thing and load the correct driver for your device." If I read the dmesg above right I have a 4306 with MAC core revision 3, so I should use b43legacy. It seems to me that it's not doing the right thing here. So I've tried rmmod b43 and modprobe b43legacy but that doesn't seem to be doing much. Kurt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
