Hi Jan-Oliver,

Could you please send us the full log? Also please share more details about the hardware platform you are using. We need to figure out how to get the nvram file.

Regards,
Franky

Hi,

I am trying to get a BCM43241 card running on a 3.11-amd64 kernel.
[1] lists the device as supported but gives no instructions on how to
install it. I managed to extract the firmware from the git binary patch
contained in [2].

I copied the firmware to /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac-sdio.bin and copied
the content of /dev/nvram to /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac-sdio.txt.

Previously, `dmesg` would list error that indicated missing files.
Currently, the output is as follows:

[12865.299503] brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_chip_drivestrengthinit: No SDIO

[12869.426308] brcmfmac: brcmf_sdbrcm_htclk: HT Avail timeout (1000000):

I have not been able to find anything to help with debugging this.

There was some discussion in response to [2] that I don't understand. Is
there something wrong with the firmware itself?

I would be very grateful for any help. I can provide all additional
information if something is missing from this report. (I can also be
reached via IRC, 'Eruquen' on freenode)

Thanks in advance,
Jan-Oliver
