Description salim salim 2013-03-14 11:23:50 CET 
hello again people

i have bought a dell inspiron 4050 laptop

and just installed mageia 2 last night after some problems i faced it on mageia 3

anyway

both of the system found that laptop's wireless adaptor but the problem here 

they marked its driver as unknown 

so whats the problem here 

FYI

the PCI-ID of that wireless is 14e4:4365

and 

there is some functions in that laptop which can be used by (( Fn + ???? ))

are not working or not fully functional

Thomas: new driver needs to be listed in /usr/lib/libDrakx/list_modules.pm in the wifi section
Comment 10 Thomas Backlund 2013-07-10 22:57:46 CEST 
It's not a new driver, it extends the bcma to support this new hw, so its more of a ldetect-lst issue.


@MÃ¥rten:

What if you add a file: 

/etc/modprobe.d/bcm4365.conf

with the line:

alias pci:v000014E4d00004357sv*sd*bc*sc*i* bcma


in it and reboot, can you then configure it ?


Also, try to install broadcom-bcma-config
Comment 11 Thierry Vignaud 2013-07-10 23:40:53 CEST 
That shouldn't be needed.
API/ABI hasn't changed & ldetect doesn't make use of libpci's driver info
Comment 12 Thomas Backlund 2013-07-11 09:13:23 CEST 
(In reply to Thomas Backlund from comment #10)
> 
> alias pci:v000014E4d00004357sv*sd*bc*sc*i* bcma
> 

Ouch, a typo.... the line should have been:

alias pci:v000014E4d00004365sv*sd*bc*sc*i* bcma


(In reply to Thierry Vignaud from comment #11)
> That shouldn't be needed.

Hm, so why does it not detect it then?

@MÃ¥rten:

when you use the 3.8.13.4 kernel, and _before_ you add the alias line and reboot,
can you show output of: lspcidrake -v | grep NETWORK

cant get anny info on grep network the onley thing that happends is network is in collour red
Comment 14 Mårten Ström 2013-07-11 21:43:09 CEST 
@ Thomas i have the config file instald and i dont understand howe to do the modeprobe thing
Comment 15 Thomas Backlund 2013-07-12 11:21:02 CEST 
Ok, so it does detect the bcma correctly:

bcma            : Broadcom Corporation|BCM43142 802.11b/g/n [NETWORK_OTHER] (vendor:14e4 device:4365 subv:1028 subd:0016) (rev: 01)

If you have broadcom-bcma-config installed, I wonder if its a missing firmware...

Can you attach output of journalctl -b

(meaning as root, do: journalctl -b >bcm4365.log, and attatch the resulting bcm4365.log)

Comment 17 salim salim 2013-07-12 19:50:55 CEST 
System update succesfull

But the problem still 

Harddrake mark bluetooth as a known device and use btusb for it

But wireless is still as unknown device

Is there any documentation in the wiki about how to add support for new hardware? It would help to avoid such comments in the future :)

Yeah, I know that... 
it was just that it was not a "new" driver so I didn't check the list :/

and I see we miss ssb from it too :/

ssb has been with us atleast since mga1 and bcma since mga2
