New Broadcom driver for recent 43xx wireless devices
Aha!
by superjoe30 » 2008-10-02 02:30
Solution:
It's this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... bug/259816
Someone suggested "force vlan_mode to off on initialization of device" and wrote this patch:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/u ... 6df6eaa59f
I incorporated this patch into the drivers posted in the first post, compiled the kernel module, and insmodded them, and it completely fixed the problems.
I was experiencing the same rare but deadly kernel panics as Typhoon, and we'll see if this code change hopefully fixes that as well.

I don't have a solution, but I notice two things that are quite different from the listings on my own machine.
In you lspci listing, The "Capabilities" says "<access denied>". On my machine, I get a very detailed listing of capabilities.
Second, it seems that your router is not broadcasting an ESSID. I have read elsewhere that connection can be flaky when the broadcast is turned off. And it adds little or nothing to security.
Suggestion: get hold of a live 32 bit distro and see if you get different results from the lspci listing.
Let us know how you go.
Typhoon, thanks for your attention. I had stopped trying to make it work and only after I read your comment I got back to work to try to figure out the problem.
Running the LiveCD ( I used knoppix 5.1.1 ) I got the information on the Capabilities information that was hidden on Debian until I couple of minutes ago (now it's available).
I reconfigurated the linksys router, removed all security and tried a lot of times, both wireless gnome tool and shell environment, 'til the moment the wireless started working.
I think the problem was due to ssb module, i'm not totally sure 'cause i've done so many changes.
I'll reboot the system now (and right after i'll configure the wireless security) and check if it will be still working.

I don't know what's gone wrong. Everything was working OK for me, but suddenly I get a kernel panic as soon as the Network Manager starts.
I can install by hand, and it works fine. As soon as I shut down and reboot, no joy. I followed the excellent instructios in superjoe30's guide. I get the same problem whether I use the "plain" Broadcom module or the patched one from superjoe30.
The only clue I see is this: when compiling the 'vanilla' module, I get the following warning:
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in /home/alant/hybrid_wl/wl.o
see include/linux/module.h for more information.
I don't get the warning with the superjoe30 patch, but the problem persists.
Any help appreciated!

Typhoon, when you lspci | grep Network, which version of the broadcom hardware do you have?
I have 4310:
0b:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4310 USB Controller (rev 01)

Yep, BCM4310.
It was working OK, so I must have changed something. I did fool around a little with wpa_supplicant. Maybe I didn't get the /etc/network/interfaces file back the way it should be. Can you please post yours?

Here's mine. I didn't change anything, so this should just be the default one for debian.

OK, thanks. I did have an error, but it still hasn't fixed my problem. Looking in the log, I see this message:
Oct 5 11:23:05 chickie kernel: [ 104.167805] wl: module license 'MIXED/Proprietary' taints kernel.
I don't know what it means, but when I unplug the wired connection, the network manager tries to hook me to the wireless and everything freezes.
EDIT: Oh, well. I can start it by hand and it resumes OK after sleep or hibernate. I guess I can live with it. Strange though.

Weird, as soon as you posted that I started getting the exact same kernel panics. It seems that the problem only occurs when it loads up automatically. Before I logged into gdm, I pressed Ctrl+Alt+F1 and logged in, sudo rmmod wl, and then ctrl+alt+F7 and then logged into gdm. Then of course wireless doesn't work. So I opened up a terminal and sudo modprobe wl. Then keep checking that icon, and as soon as it starts to try to connect to your network, click that same network. For example, if it says "connecting to linksys" quick, click on the icon and from the list of networks click linksys. Then it should connect without a kernel panic. From that point, hibernate instead of shutting down.
It's a temporary fix, until someone patches it.

OK, I think the problem is the interaction between the wl module and the Network Manager. Here is a solution that has worked for me through several reboots.
Use the wpa_supplicant roaming capability. This allows the wireless connection to be made without the use of the Network Manager.
Setting up wpa_supplicant is described in another thread of this forum: viewtopic.php?t=27573
I had to use eth1 instead of wlan0, but otherwise the instructions worked well.

i installed the iw module with no problems compiling it.
it recognized my hardware and loaded successfully

i revert to the original wl sources
and changed my /etc/network/interfaces to
- Code: Select all
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-mode managed
wireless-essid home
and now it works fine
thank you everyone !!!

I think that using the "wireless" commands in the /etc/network/interfaces file means that Network Manager is no longer used. Not sure about this, but if so, then it is similar to my solution above.
The kernel panic messages that you show are the same that I had when Network Manager tried to start.

i do not use NetworkManager
and i get only the welcome message when i use ftp from the console
funny ! since i use KDE and it works fine from konqueror or krusader
i saw wireshark logging FTP over TCP retransmit messages
sending USER ftp command and the server replys with welcome message
you think it is related or some issue with cli ftp ?
