that is great. Ok, do you have the kernel sources on your system ? If so, cd
to the root of the source tree and issue these commands to build the driver:
make SUBDIRS=drivers/staging/brcm80211 clean
make SUBDIRS=drivers/staging/brcm80211 modules
Done!
perfect !
if that works, do a 'modprobe mac80211' followed by a 'insmod
drivers/staging/brcm80211/brcmutil/brcmutil.ko'
root@stt300:/usr/src/linux-source-3.0.0# insmod
drivers/staging/brcm80211/brcmutil/brcmutil.ko
insmod: can't read 'drivers/staging/brcm80211/brcmutil/brcmutil.ko':
No such file or directory
Ah, okay...
root@stt300:/usr/src/linux-source-3.0.0# insmod
drivers/staging/brcm80211/util/brcmutil.ko
Ah, the source tree had some renaming. It is named 'brcmutil' in my
source but in the source you are using it is still named 'util'.
root@stt300:/usr/src/linux-source-3.0.0#
followed by a 'insmod drivers/staging/brcm80211/brcmsmac/brcmsmac.ko'.
Mmm... this one returned an error:
root@stt300:/usr/src/linux-source-3.0.0# insmod
drivers/staging/brcm80211/brcmsmac/brcmsmac.ko
insmod: error inserting
'drivers/staging/brcm80211/brcmsmac/brcmsmac.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in

These symbols are contained in the 'brcmutil.ko' module. Can you check
with lsmod that brcmutil is indeed loaded ?
Thanks, Roland.
