With the new kernel ( 2.6.22.1-41 x86_64 ), I started getting these error messages during bootup ( which I did not receive in previous kernels such as 2.6.21-1.3228: bcm43xx-phy0 debug: Adding Interface type 2 ssb: Switching to PCI-E core, index 3 ssb: Switching to IEEE 802.11 core, index 1 bcm43xx-phy0 debug: Loading firmware version 371.1061 (2006-10-04 21:02:04) ssb: Switching to ChipCommon core, index 0 ssb: Switching to IEEE 802.11 core, index 1 bcm43xx-phy0 debug: Radio turned on bcm43xx-phy0 debug: Radio enabled by hardware bcm43xx-phy0 debug: bbatt(11) >= size of LO array Call Trace: [<ffffffff881f2abf>] :bcm43xx_mac80211:bcm43xx_get_lo_g_ctl+0x65/0xa8 [<ffffffff881f2b38>] :bcm43xx_mac80211:bcm43xx_lo_g_ctl_current+0x36/0x3b [<ffffffff881f2c1c>] :bcm43xx_mac80211:bcm43xx_lo_g_adjust+0x9/0x15 [<ffffffff881ed25f>] :bcm43xx_mac80211:bcm43xx_phy_init_pctl+0x338/0x6a6 [<ffffffff881e7af4>] :bcm43xx_mac80211:bcm43xx_phy_read+0x5c/0x63 [<ffffffff881f052c>] :bcm43xx_mac80211:bcm43xx_phy_initg+0xc85/0xd0a [<ffffffff881f0d5f>] :bcm43xx_mac80211:bcm43xx_phy_init+0x582/0x5a7 [<ffffffff881e4cce>] :bcm43xx_mac80211:bcm43xx_chip_init+0x68c/0x9a3 [<ffffffff881e526d>] :bcm43xx_mac80211:bcm43xx_wireless_core_init+0x288/0x73e [<ffffffff881e62bb>] :bcm43xx_mac80211:bcm43xx_add_interface+0x5f/0xf4 [<ffffffff881b16e4>] :mac80211:ieee80211_open+0x21d/0x34d [<ffffffff8124354d>] wext_handle_ioctl+0x354/0x39d [<ffffffff811df4af>] dev_open+0x2f/0x6e [<ffffffff811dd677>] dev_change_flags+0x5a/0x118 [<ffffffff8122180f>] devinet_ioctl+0x235/0x597 [<ffffffff8124adde>] do_page_fault+0x476/0x7b4 [<ffffffff811d3053>] sock_ioctl+0x1c8/0x1e5 [<ffffffff8109e807>] do_ioctl+0x2b/0xb6 [<ffffffff8109ead5>] vfs_ioctl+0x243/0x25c [<ffffffff8109eb47>] sys_ioctl+0x59/0x7a [<ffffffff81009cd5>] tracesys+0xd5/0xda bcm43xx-phy0 debug: Chip initialized bcm43xx-phy0 debug: 32-bit DMA initialized bcm43xx-phy0 debug: Wireless interface started ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready Any ideas ?
