Annoying messages at boot or text mode from my BRCM4313

#1 Post by n0ct1s.deb »

Hi, I have installed a BRCM4313 Wireless Adapter on my laptop, and I use the package "firmware-brcm80211" from the non-free repo to use my WiFi connection. When I always boot I always se messages like these:
ALL FROM JOURNALCTL AT BOOT AND IN THE TTY IN ORDER:
Support for cores revisions 0x17 and 0x18 disabled by module param allhwsupport=0. Try b43.allhwsupport=1
special from journalct:l b43:probe of bcma0:0 failed with error -524

PC SPECS: Intel Atom N550 1.5GHz (Dual Core: Hyperthreading = 4 Cores), 2GB RAM, Intel GPU, BRCM4313 Wifi PCIe, Bluetooth Broadcom, LAN Marvell 88E8040 PCIe

This happen in all GNU/Linux distros, but now I'm in Debian Stretch. The messages also appear every 1 minute in TTY and I can't write

The source code for all of the Broadcom drivers is complete junk, get a better wireless card.

EDIT: I suppose you could try the b43.allhwsupport=1 kernel parameter suggested by the message, maybe that will help.

EDIT2: looks like you're using the wrong driver:

https://wiki.debian.org/wl

I still stand by my original advice though.

I had done all of the wiki page that you sent to me but the NetworkManager is allways trying to connect to the WiFi and I can't access to the internet.

The debian installer always ask me to use firmware files from the "firmware-brcm80211" package. The files are:
brcm/bcm43xx-0.fw & brcm/bcm43xx_hdr-0.fw

I tried to reintsall the deafult firmware package firmware-brcm80211 , and delete the dkms sta common broadcom package and modprobes. And I added the b43.allhwsupport=1 following the steps on this thread: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2214439#2. But when I reboot, this message appears: THIS PROVIDES FROM JOURNALCTL
b43-phy0 ERROR: FOUND UNSUPPORTED PHY (Analog 10, Type 8 (LCN), Revision 1)
b43: probe of bcma0:0 failed with error -95

EDIT: also I tried to modprobe bcma but nothing happens, and the "implement" messages continue showing

Why?

That is the wrong module for your card and it should be blacklisted if the wl driver is used.

According to the Debian wiki, this is the package you need:

https://packages.debian.org/broadcom-sta-dkms

is your thread about not being able to connect to the internet, or about annoying messages in the tty?
tty messages can be switched off.

I saw the wl debian's wiki page, and I had to blacklist the bcma but that dkms module doesn't work and I can't access to the internet because the nm-applet try to connect to the network but it still connecting

I can access to the internet with the brcm80211 firmware but the speed is getting up and down and I can't download or upload correctly

first of all, it's BCM4313, and not BRCM4313.
are you sure you got the number 4313 right? this is very important.
https://wiki.debian.org/bcm43xx tells you how to identify the chip.
assuming it is 4313, you continue here: https://wiki.debian.org/brcm80211

of course you could also go with HoaS' advice: https://wiki.debian.org/wl
- but the former looks easier to me.

both wiki articles have several important (and possibly relevant to your situation) points to check after installation.
