The broadcom-sta package includes the kernel module 'wl', which contains
|
|
the Broadcom-provided proprietary kernel driver that supports a number of
|
|
their cards. Known supported model numbers include the listed chipsets.
|
|
|
|
BCM4311 (PCI IDs 14e4:4311, 14e4:4312, 14e4:4313)
|
|
BCM4312 (PCI ID 14e4:4315)
|
|
BCM4313 (PCI ID 14e4:4727)
|
|
BCM4321 (PCI IDs 14e4:4328, 14e4:4329, 14e4:432a)
|
|
BCM4322 (PCI IDs 14e4:432b, 14e4:432c, 14e4:432d)
|
|
BCM43142 (PCI ID 14e4:4365)
|
|
BCM43224 (PCI ID 14e4:4353)
|
|
BCM43225 (PCI ID 14e4:4357)
|
|
BCM43227 (PCI ID 14e4:4358)
|
|
BCM43228 (PCI ID 14e4:4359)
|
|
BCM4331 (PCI ID 14e4:4331)
|
|
BCM4360 (PCI ID 14e4:43a0)
|
|
BCM4352 (PCI ID 14e4:43b1)
|
|
|
|
Some of these devices are also supported by the free b43 and brcm80211
|
|
drivers. In order to avoid conflicts /etc/modprobe.d/b43_blacklist.conf
|
|
disables these drivers.
|
|
|
|
Read the included LICENSE.txt file (placed in /usr/doc) before using the
|
|
proprietary driver.

Kernel compile instructions (for BCM43142)
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
1) Ensure that all the wifi drivers (b43, Intel pro, etc) in
|
|
drivers>network>wireless are compiled as modules.
|
|
|
|
2) Either disable or compile the 'Broadcom specific AMBA' (drivers) as a
|
|
module. Otherwise this driver will be loaded by the wifi module instead
|
|
of the proper one.
