Comments on: On the Goddard bus http://sankarshan.randomink.org/blog/2010/05/25/on-the-goddard-bus/ A collection of jottings on various issues that excite no one else Tue, 08 Jun 2010 14:47:03 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.6.17 By: Adam Williamson http://sankarshan.randomink.org/blog/2010/05/25/on-the-goddard-bus/comment-page-1/#comment-68155 Tue, 08 Jun 2010 14:47:03 +0000 http://sankarshan.randomink.org/blog/2010/05/25/on-the-goddard-bus/#comment-68155 In reply to sankarshan.

oh, sorry, missed your earlier reply.

Check if the b43 module actually supports the adapter (just boot the system and do lsmod and see if it’s loaded). If so, check if b43-openfwwf package is installed; if it is, and wireless ain’t working, then it doesn’t work with the open driver and firmware. So try with open driver and closed firmware instead – use b43-fwcutter to extract firmware from the Windows driver for the hardware and see if b43 works with that. If THAT doesn’t work, use the closed ‘wl’ driver from rpmfusion, instead of b43. If that doesn’t work, you’re screwed =)

@Adam, do you propose any solution to the wireless issue ?

However, I do use a standard/stock F13 build, so is there something specific that I should be looking for ?

A new kernel update is supposed to fix this https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=590835

I wanted a fresh install since I have been doing upgrades on this box from around F9 and, would have loved to get rid of the .gnome* cruft that piles up. Upgrade it surely allows for example check hpillay on identi.ca or, twitter for his F12 32bit F13 64 bit via the liveusb

Doesn’t Fedora let you perform upgrades?
