 Hi,
 
 just installed OpenBSD-current and most of things do work out of box.
 However Broadcom's wireless card BCM4313 does appear in dmesg output as
 properly detected but not initialized/configured:
 
  snip 
 pci2 at ppb1 bus 2
 Broadcom BCM4313 rev 0x01 at pci2 dev 0 function 0 not configured
  snip 
 
 Ifconfig does not list this card. (bwi?) expected.
 Even tried if the missing firmware is the cause, but fw_update only fetched
 firmware for a webcam.
 
I tried to hack a bit on bwi but when it attaches it does not load the firmware,
I think that bwn should be ported from FreeBSD:
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/dev/bwn/

Broadcom's bcm4313 not yet supported ?

2013-06-17 Thread Tori Mus
Hi,

just installed OpenBSD-current and most of things do work out of box.
However Broadcom's wireless card BCM4313 does appear in dmesg output as
properly detected but not initialized/configured:

 snip 
pci2 at ppb1 bus 2
Broadcom BCM4313 rev 0x01 at pci2 dev 0 function 0 not configured
 snip 

Ifconfig does not list this card. (bwi?) expected.
Even tried if the missing firmware is the cause, but fw_update only fetched
firmware for a webcam.

Just asking if this type of card is not (yet) supported even in the current
branch and have to buy some external on usb stick.

Thanks.

Tori

bwi is incomplete due to a lack of vendor documentation

there may be improvement in dragonflybsd that is worth porting over, or
you may get lucky, stick the PCI device ID for your card into the bwi
driver, and see that it otherwise works...

your best bet may be to buy a better supported mini-pcie card and install it!

at yourself once in awhile.
