Re: brcmsmac driver only works when sitting next to the AP

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

Let me check it...

root@stt300:/usr/src/linux-source-3.0.0# lsmod|grep -e mac -e br
brcmutil               13187  0
mac80211              165768  0
cfg80211              112970  1 mac80211

Seems loaded :-?

Agree.

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
module

And dmesg:

[18412.454900] brcmutil: module is from the staging directory, the
quality is unknown, you have been warned.
[18462.257358] brcmsmac: module is from the staging directory, the
quality is unknown, you have been warned.
[18462.260105] brcmsmac: Unknown symbol crc_ccitt (err 0)

The crc_ccitt warning can be resolved with a: 'sudo modprobe crc-ccitt' before loading the two brcm drivers.

Can you see the missing symbols with a 'cat /proc/kallsyms | grep bcm' ?

Thanks, Roland.
