For Flying Spaghetti Monster's sake.... This bug still happens on Trusty. How hard is it to fix the issue so that my /var/log/syslog doesn't grow to multiple GBs in a single day and still remains useful?!
Stop bickering and put a simple fix in, i.e. only reporting the error once, not every two seconds! The driver is still spamming the log every couple of seconds. root@hakan-work:~# lspci|grep -i broad 02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM43228 802.11a/b/g/n root@hakan-work:~# tail -n 20 /var/log/syslog Jun 23 07:12:27 hakan-work kernel: [58615.240360] ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:27 hakan-work kernel: [58615.240366] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:29 hakan-work kernel: [58617.242963] ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:29 hakan-work kernel: [58617.242967] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:31 hakan-work kernel: [58619.245942] ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:31 hakan-work kernel: [58619.245955] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:33 hakan-work kernel: [58621.236626] ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:33 hakan-work kernel: [58621.236630] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:35 hakan-work kernel: [58623.240581] ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:35 hakan-work kernel: [58623.240585] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:37 hakan-work kernel: [58625.226418] ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:37 hakan-work kernel: [58625.226423] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:39 hakan-work kernel: [58627.240999] ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:39 hakan-work kernel: [58627.241003] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:41 hakan-work kernel: [58629.233176] ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:41 hakan-work kernel: [58629.233180] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:43 hakan-work kernel: [58631.235820] ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:43 hakan-work kernel: [58631.235828] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:45 hakan-work kernel: [58633.236775] ERROR @wl_dev_intvar_get : error (-1) Jun 23 07:12:45 hakan-work kernel: [58633.236779] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_get_tx_power : error (-1) root@hakan-work:~# uname -a Linux hakan-work 3.13.0-29-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 4 21:00:20 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1107155 Title: wl continuously spams syslog To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/1107155/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
