http://wiki.openwrt.org/oldwiki/BroadcomBCM63xxPort tells the following: "Port ATM/ADSL changes to kernel 2.6.27 and use the binary DSL for now" so there may exist a binary driver which can be used with 2.6.27 !? anyway, i would nag broadcom for open-source driver or for binary one for recent or at least "newer" linux kernel. for myself, i`m really sick of that "binary driver only" game some vendors want to play....especially broadcom. regards roland > > However about using some old fuse and ntfs-3g version, e.g. fuse > 2.5.3?
