Description Trever Adams 2006-08-05 22:58:12 UTC 
Description of problem:
Included is the lspci -vvv and lspci -n output. bcm43xx needs to be updated to
include the appropriate ids as it is currently not seeing my bcm4311 as a bcm43xx.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.17-1.2527.fc6

How reproducible:
Always

I believe this contains the necessary information to update the driver with the
right pci ids.
Comment 2 Trever Adams 2006-08-05 23:30:33 UTC 
Yes, before anyone asks, I do have what I believe to be the appropriate firmware
in place, extracted from the driver with fwcutter.
Comment 3 Trever Adams 2006-08-15 18:46:17 UTC 
The driver currently only supports PCI. bcm4311 is pci express. I have learned
this doing more reading.

Anything I need to do? Mark this closed? Bug you all to help add pci express?
Comment 4 Dave Jones 2006-09-14 05:55:35 UTC 
Your best bet is to get involved with the upstream project directly, and Fedora
will inherit any changes due to its constant rebasing to stay close to mainline.
