[Bug 184976] Re: Hardy: b43 driver not working (Upgrade from Gutsy)
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 182716 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182716 Same problem here with an Acer Extensa 5220. But with a fresh hardy- installation. Before bcm43xx works fine with gutsy. Uninstalled bcm43xx-fwcutter and b43-fwcutter. Then installed b43-fwcutter and at the end loaded down and installed the b43-firmware. WLAN works but only right next to my router. When the distance was higher (about 10m) then the laptop wasn't able to connect. I found out that the signal was shown with a quality of 85-95 % in the network- manager when the Laptop was right next to my router. So the signal wasn't stable. Seems like the b43-driver and/or firmware is not so good. So I uninstalled the b43-fwcutter and removed the b43-firmware. Than I installed the bcm43xx-fwcutter and at the end loaded down and installed the bcm43xx-firmware. Changed the bcm43xx-entry in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist into b43 and added bcm43xx to /etc/modules. After the restart the WLAN doesn't work (bcm43xx-driver and firmware loaded right). The network-manager doesn't find my WLAN-network. Don't know if the signal-problems with b43 are because of the firmware or the driver. Would be nice, when it will be changed until the hardy- release. Maybe the problem can be fixed with a new b43-v.011-firmware? -- Hardy: b43 driver not working (Upgrade from Gutsy) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184976 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 182716 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182716 @naugth101: Why b43legacy should be a seperate package? It is included in linux-image-2.6.24 as a module, you should not try to compile the linuxwireless.org driver util you know what you're doing. If you want to give bcm43xx another try you'll need to blacklist b43 and unblacklist bcm43xx. Make sure you have b43-fwcutter (bcm43-fwcutter if you want to use bcm43xx-driver) installed and get the appropriate firmware for the 2.6.24 kernel-versions of the drivers.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 182716 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182716 @naught101: [Update] OK, because I'm not using ubuntu b43-fwcutter-package, I did not recognize that it is a bit outdated. It should extract firmware to the right place (both for b43legacy and b43, e.g. manually running /usr/share/b43-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh as root), which should result in two folders in /lib/firmware: b43 and b43legacy. The only thing is, that the version in hardy is 008 while actually 011 is up-to-date. Because the upstream-package does not include any changelog, I can't say if this is related.
