I posted a couple of days ago to the bcm43xx_dev list about problems
getting b43 to run on a
arm (MX21 SoC). That list appears to have died recently (at least
nothing added to the archives
since last month)
That problem is fixed now (and patch posted)
However I now get:

b43-phy0 ERROR: You must go to
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware
and download the correct firmware for this driver version. Please
carefully read all instructions on this website.
I am using firmware broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5 extracted with
b43-fwcutter-012 as described
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware
Any ideas why the versions don't match?
The firmware files are arch independant right? (since I run fwcutter
on x86 and run the kernel on ARM)
Kernel version is 2.6.32-rc5
The PCMCIA controller driver is new (I recently posted it to
linux-pcmcia and linux-arm)
Cheers,
Martin
