| |
Hello, After about 30 recompiling of the kernel and svevral research on the net I came to the result : the Broadcom driver bcm4400 (b44) has a problem
log: - Kernel: b44.c:v0.9 (july 2003) - link is down - flow control is off for tx and off for rx
First I wasn't able to do a ifup: it gave me a siocsifflags not implemented error, but it disapear when I enable the acpi (??? Strange how those 2 things are related ??)
Then I tried the patch solution provided by http://twibble.org/dist/bcm4400/ No better result ! I used gcc 3.2.2
I got an other feed back from somebody who installed the 2.4.22, with the b44 driver and who get a failure on bringing up the network at boot time but ..... network is strangely working correctly !
I don't know where to find more logs on this specific problem, if you need some more info, contact me
