With latest git tree, bcm43xx driver does not work. By bisect, I've found the commit 4cf92a3c is the first "bad" commit. [PATCH] softmac: Fix ESSID problem Victor Porton reported that the SoftMAC layer had random problem when setting the ESSID : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8686 After investigation, it turned out to be worse, the SoftMAC layer is left in an inconsistent state. The fix is pretty trivial. Signed-off-by: Jean Tourrilhes Acked-by: Michael Buesch Acked-by: Larry Finger Signed-off-by: John W. Linville After reverting this commit, the driver starts working again.
