Hi folks I am playing with the b43 driver and it appears there is firmware needed to usre this card. This firmware is not included in the firmware.tgz tarball.
I built b43-fwcutter and extracted the firmware from broadcom's binary distribution. root@leafbuilder:/home/mega/leaf/firmware/broadcom/fwdir# find b43 b43 b43/ucode16_sslpn.fw b43/sslpn2bsinitvals19.fw b43/lp0initvals13.fw b43/ucode15.fw ..... Now a few questions pop up 1) where is the firmware loaded at boot I could not find any code in linuxrc to load firmware. Would it make sense to package it into a .lrp file? 2) What is the correct path to include this firmware in the firmware tarball The local path is b43, so I assume it could be either broadcom or broadcom/b43 cheers Erich
