[Bug 208183] Re: bcm4328 chipset not supported by hardy heron

2008-11-06 Thread Fabián Rodríguez
Correct, in Intrepid a bunch of Broadcom chipsets are now supported out
of the box following a commercial agreement between Canonical and
Broadcom.

But for Hardy NDISwrapper + Windows drivers as I described initially is
the only way this can work.

Now closing this as fix released.

That is the driver that works which has also been added to linux-
restricted-modules-2.6.24.

The Broadcom driver for 4318 works flawlessly on the BCM4328.  I
installed it via restricted drivers manager on Hardy and built the LKM
on Intrepid.  Better signal strength, connects fasters on start
up/suspend.

The native Broadcom modules in Linux do not support bcm4328 yet:
https://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/bcm43xx-dev/2008-May/007517.html

Best to stick with ndiswrapper for now (or buy a supported wireless
card...) The following driver is reported to work with ndiswrapper on
Dell machines: http://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R151517.EXE

Matt, the drivers I linked to are for an HP system. Generally speaking
you should try and use drivers for your system if /when using
NDISwrapper.

notarnet, care to share your system's brand and model, as well as the output of 
the following command ?:

2008-05-13 Thread Matt Schulte
I also have the BCM4328 (Rev 03) chipset.  It is not detected by the
default Hardy 8.04 install, as advertised.

Likewise I have had some success with the ndiswrapper.  I have a Dell
Inspiron 1721, and am using an XP driver that I found on their website.

I don't have a lot of experience with ndiswrapper, so I don't know if
this is to be expected, but it seems to take an inordinate amount of
time for the wireless to connect up and get an ip address.

Thank you Fabián,

I've been trying to make my new Acer Ferrari 1100 internal wifi card
(BCM4328 rev 01) work with Ubuntu 8.04 for 2 days without success.

I tried Acer's native driver, ndiswrapper, installed Ubuntu x86 and
Ubuntu AMD64 final releases, but I simply couldn't connect.

Your hint worked, and I am posting from my newly connected notebook!

Thanks!

NDISWrapper and Windows XP drivers for bcm4328 work just fine for me.

I am running Hardy beta with latest updates, I have been using wireless wince 
alpha 4 without problems with an HP Pavilion tx1220ca which reports this from 
lspci:
03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4328 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 03)

The drivers with NDISwrappers are for Windos XP, and are available here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-53245-1lc=encc=cadlc=enproduct=3444231os=228

Once i had the SP36684.exe file, I had to install the wine package and run 
it. The installer crashes however the files remain installed at 
~/.wine/drive_c/SWSetup/SP36684A. I also install ndsigtk (which brings along 
all ndiswrapper dependencies) and using the following command I point at the 
INF file in the above directory:
sudo ndisgtk

Then wireless drivers load and after a few minutes all surrounding
wireless networks are visible and can be used.
