Subject: b43: regression on bcm4318
Date: Sat, 13 Oct 2007 12:17:30 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071013121730.1eef0d93@kernel.crashing.org> (raw)
Hello John et al,
(previous email had a typo in ML addr, sorry for the extra noise)
Both b43 and b43legacy fail to load on bcm4318 for a while now, while it used to work (with known issues) more or less
fine. The issue started happening not long before ssb united the support of b44 as well. Therefor, I noticed the difference
soon, because I am not able to use ndiswrapper instead anymore (it does not like ssb, and my NIC, b44, does not like
ssb missing either).
dmesg looks like the below:
b43-phy1: Broadcom 4318 WLAN found
b43-phy1 debug: Found PHY: Analog 3, Type 2, Revision 7
b43-phy1 debug: Found Radio: Manuf 0x17F, Version 0x2050, Revision 8
phy1: Failed to select rate control algorithm
phy1: Failed to initialize rate control algorithm
b43: probe of ssb0:0 failed with error -2
Currently this is latest rawhide kernel, but has been happening for awhile
(since, at least, 2.6.22.5, where ssb was not yet merged and I still able to use ndiswrapper.
Any hint to debug/investigate it appreciated. It does not look like hw malfunction, since ndiswrapper,
when able to load, still works fine.

Sincerely, Vitaly
