F15 and Broadcom BCM4313

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I'm testing a netbook using the F15 Beta Live image.  That netbook has
a Broadcom BCM4313 wifi chipset, of which I can find several problem
reports and the same number of answers, with or without success reports.

The lspci -v output (I've zeroed the S/N in the output):

02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Device 1a3b:2047
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 10
        Memory at fbffc000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
        Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 3
        Capabilities: [58] Vendor Specific Information: Len=78 <?>
        Capabilities: [48] MSI: Enable- Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+
        Capabilities: [d0] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
        Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting
        Capabilities: [13c] Virtual Channel
        Capabilities: [160] Device Serial Number 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00
        Capabilities: [16c] Power Budgeting <?>

Two questions:

-  Can I get this chip working (as a test) using the Live USB-stick, so
   that I can verify the correct working without actually installing
   Fedora on the disk?  (Wired Ethernet is working to retrieve external
   stuff when needed.)

-  Is this chipset expected to start working without any additional
   tweaks during the F15 life cycle?

Thx,
