Subject: p54pci: problems during initialization
Date: Sat, 11 Jul 2009 20:06:44 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200907112006.45731.rossi.f@inwind.it> (raw)

I have a PCMCIA card (3com 3CRWE154G72 v2) which has problems during the 
device initialization phase. I'm using the current wireless.git and the 
firmware included with the working Windows driver (extracted by fwextract).

Sometimes I'm able to get the card working but most of times it doesn't 
complete the initialization. When it works dmesg reports:

When it doesn't work I read:

It seems there is a problem inside the function p54_read_eeprom().

I have also tried with other firmwares available here
  http://daemonizer.de/prism54/prism54-fw/
with the following results:

2.3.2.0.arm - same behaviour
2.4.2.0.arm - same behaviour
2.4.6.0.arm - same behaviour
2.4.8.0.arm - same behaviour
2.4.11.0.arm - same behaviour
2.4.12.0.arm - same behaviour
2.5.2.0.arm - same behaviour
2.5.3.0.arm - same behaviour
2.5.6.0.arm - same behaviour
2.7.0.0.arm - same behaviour
2.12.0.0.arm - same behaviour
2.13.1.0.arm - same behaviour
2.13.8.0.arm - cannot boot firmware, probe error -110
2.13.12.0.arm - cannot boot firmware, probe error -110
2.17.2.0.arm - cannot boot firmware, probe error -110


Any clue?
