Hi,
I'm running FC11 on a MacBook Pro. After the latest kernel
updates (to 2.6.29.6-217.2.16.fc11.x86_64) I cannot connect to
my wireless router anymore. If I boot up in the previous kernel
it works fine. Any ideas on how I can fix this? The wireless
interface on this laptop is a Broadcom Corporation BCM4322.
No problems on this laptop with BCM4311 and the latest kernel.
Generally, a blanket statement that something doesn't work offers
very little usable information to work with. At the very least, you
should gather some preliminary information yourself, such as:
Right, sorry about that.
1) the output of lsmod, to determine whether the b43 kernel module
is loaded.'
It wasn't but it didn't change anything to add it. Here's the output of
'lsmod | grep b43'
b43 127352 0
ssb 39572 1 b43
mac80211 199632 1 b43
cfg80211 37088 2 b43,mac80211
input_polldev 3952 2 b43,applesmc
2) various bits of information from /var/log/messages. kernel
messages from early in the boot process would report whether or not
the kernel module was loaded, and if not why not. Or may be you have
some error messages from NetworkManager, or wpa_supplicant, that
point towards a clue.
Here's the output of 'cat messages | grep Network':

It finds the access point but fails at connecting..
thanks for any help,
Did you have the kmod-wl module installed before?
