[Bug 197558] Re: ssb module breaks BCM4328 with ndiswrapper (regression from 2.6.24-10)
I guess you call it regression, because your PCI ID was added to ssb. Yes, we want to auto-load ssb for every SSB-based device. If you want to use non-official (non-mainline) ndiswrapper, just blacklist native driver. What do you expect to be done in this ticket? I can only suggest fixing ndiswrapper howto and closing this as invalid. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197558 Title: ssb module breaks BCM4328 with ndiswrapper (regression from 2.6.24-10) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I too have a BCM4328 card (Dell Wireless 1505 Draft-N). I finally got it to work after reading this post, although I had to modify Levmatta's original procedure. The WL and SSB modules worked for the wireless card, but the speed was god awfully slow (max 10K/sec as slow as 50 bytes/sec) and I could not use any sort of encryption (yes, I had wpasupplicant installed, I even built it from source to make sure it was a driver problem). I created the ndiswrapper init.d script symbolic link at /etc/rc1.d/S01ndiswrapper, basically before the bcm43xx-firmware loads at /etc/rc1.d/S05 and continually loads for some odd reason through rc5.d. I did not have to re-probe the ssb module after removing it to get my all of my USB devices to work. Here is my script that works in Intrepid Ibex Kubuntu 8.10 for anyone suffering problems related to the bcm4328 wireless card: cat /etc/init.d/ndiswrapper #! /bin/sh ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: ndiswrapper # Required-Start: # Required-Stop: # Default-Start: S # Default-Stop: # Short-Description: enable to load ndiswrapper # Description: enable to load ndiswrapper ### END INIT INFO rmmod ohci_hcd rmmod ssb rmmod wl rmmod ndiswrapper depmod -a modprobe ndiswrapper modprobe ssb modprobe ohci_hcd # end file # / end file I didn't need to put rmmod b43, b44, b43legacy, bcm43xx, etc because the bcm43xx module has not loaded yet at S01 in rc1.d. cat /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper install pci:v14E4d4328sv*sd*bc*sc*i* /sbin/modprobe ndiswrapper / end file I tried using the alias pci in the modprobe.d script and the ndiswrapper driver never loaded, a lspci -k revealed that ssb and wl were in use by the kernel with no mention of ndiswrapper. So I tried ndiswrapper -mi and cut out all the extras from the modprobe.d file and voila, it finally worked after a month of fiddling with it. The wifi card persistently works after reboot, so I am very happy. I still haven't figured out how to use WPA encryption with the card, but WEP 128-bit open system works just fine, so it will have to do for now. I live in a remote area with massive signal interference so I'm not worried about people hacking my network because I get weak reception on my porch and the router is less than 100 feet away (-50 dBm).

Sorry, but my issue started at about the same kernel revision, and doing the workaround (rmmod ssb rmmod ndiswrapper modprobe ndiswrapper modprobe ssb) does work for me, as mentioned in my previous commend. So, that seems to indicate that it is, a the very least, a related issue. You recommend using b43, which still does not work very well for me when using WPA2 -- I get slowness due to intermittent bad crypto rx failures, and it is a significant drain on my laptop's battery life (versus using ndiswrapper). I've been through this with my Canonical support rep doing back through dapper, edgy, and feisty; gusty was the first release where the wireless worked decently for me out-of-the-box. While I would love to use the b43 driver, it is believed to be suboptimal in my scenario by several people who should know. In short, I'm pretty sure this bug applies to my situation and b43 isn't an option.

I assume that the ssb driver is getting loaded for the wireless card, but since b43 doesn't work (won't associate with the access point) and the version from compat-wireless really doesn't work (errors with ssb in dmesg), ndiswrapper is the only way to go for now. But it doesn't work if ssb loads first.

Matt: Your lspci output indicates that you have a BCM4311, not a BCM4328. There is also no indication that your problem is related to the ssb module. The bug that I reported was about a single line added to modules.pcimap in -11 that assigns the 4328 to ssb; no other lines were added during that release. It was definitely introduced between -10 and -11, and fixed between -12 and -14. Furthermore, the BCM4311 should be supported by the free b43 driver, while the BCM4328 needs ndiswrapper.

I have reinstalled 8.04 beta, performed all the updates possible (including the newer kernel, 2.6.24-15-generic). I installed ndiswrapper-common, ndiswrapper-utils-1.9, then installed the bcmwl5.inf driver and modprobe'd ndiswrapper, and it immediately worked. Good to know the fix is related to the kernel, but it'd be nice to know if it was an Ubuntu fix or a kernel fix. Also, I've noticed that my wireless connection maxes out at 130Mbps (in Windows, it maxes out at 270Mbps). I believe this is due to the driver using the 20Mhz band instead of 40Mhz. Does anyone know if there's a way to get the full 270Mbps out of it? -- ssb module breaks BCM4328 with ndiswrapper (regression from 2.6.24-10) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197558 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

Slight question: could the problems with ndiswrapper be related to this article? http://kerneltrap.org/Linux/NDISwrapper_and_the_GPL Looks like the kernel devs intentionally (or unintentionally) broke ndiswrapper because it is not GPL and requests access to GPLONLY methods. Granted, with the latest updates to Ubuntu, ndiswrapper works, but it's intermittent for me. It doesn't appear to lose connection, but data stops transmitting.

Yeah, this seems to have been fixed between -12 and -14. Marking fixed.

Me too. Not sure what you mean with blacklisting. ohci_hcd depends on ssb, so I can't really prevent ssb from being loaded if I want USB to work. I added this line to /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper to work around the problem: install ndiswrapper modprobe -r ohci_hcd ssb; modprobe --ignore-install ndiswrapper $CMDLINE_OPTS; modprobe ohci For the record: lspci -nn: ... 30:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4328 802.11a/b/g/n [14e4:4328] (rev 03) modinfo ssb: ... alias: pci:v14E4d4328sv*sd*bc*sc*i* ... bcm43xx doesn't know how to deal with this device, whether ssb is loaded or not. So I'm still stuck with using ndiswrapper. Too bad my wireless network setup is getting even messier now. -- ssb module breaks BCM4328 with ndiswrapper (regression from 2.6.24-10) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197558 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
