 Posted: Wed Dec 20, 2006 9:31 pm Post subject: Wireless bcm43xx doesn't start on boot |
 |
|
I've an ibook g4.
This is my /etc/conf.d/net
| Code: |
config_eth0=( "192.168.1.4 mtu 1500" )
routes_eth0=( "default gw 192.168.1.1" )
modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
wpa_supplicant_eth1="-Dwext"
wpa_timeout_eth1=60
config_eth1=( "192.168.1.4 mtu 1500" )
routes_eth1=( "default gw 192.168.1.2" )
|
This is my /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
| Code: |
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
ap_scan=1
network={
ssid="***********" #my SSID
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk="*****************" #real password
priority=3
}
|
This is my card
| Code: |
lspci -n | grep 14e4:43
0001:10:12.0 0280: 14e4:4320 (rev 03)
|
When I boot i get this at the end
| Code: |
* Starting D-BUS system messagebus ...
Unknown username "named" in message bus configuration file [ ok ]
* Starting Hardware Abstraction Layer daemon ... [ ok ]
* Setting up gdm ... [ ok ]
* Loading ALSA modules ...

* WARNING: ntp-client is scheduled to start when net.eth1 has started.
* Starting pbbuttonsd ... [ ok ]
* Starting powernowd ... [ ok ]
* Starting local ... [ ok ]
|
after the boot network doesn't work. but if i do something like
| Code: |
/etc/init.d/net.eth1 stop
modprobe -r bcm43xx
modprobe bcm43xx
ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.4 up
wpa_supplicant -Dwext -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -ieth1
route add default gw 192.168.1.1
|
so it SOMETIMES works..
I've tried 2.6.18 and 2.6.19 kernel (gentoo-sources).
This is my dmesg with 2.6.19

I know, but eth0 doesn't start at boot, only eth1 starts.

That's interesting, I tried it somewhere around 2.6.17, and it didn't work for me.
I still use ndiswrapper for my bcm wlan. (Remove the bcm43xx.ko file from /lib/modules if you try this, or it will get in the way. And have AC plugged in when you cycle power, or else I get a hard lockup, not even Alt-Print-b works) |

in my opinion the problem is baselayout because my script works a lot of times
| Code: |
ibook mambro # cat connectWiFi
/etc/init.d/net.eth1 stop
modprobe -r bcm43xx
modprobe bcm43xx
ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.4 up
wpa_supplicant -Dwext -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -ieth1 &
route add default gw 192.168.1.1
|
the problem is that in this way all the init scripts that depend from eth1 (firestarter samba ntp-client) doesn't start..

maybe i've found the problem.
If I start wpa_supplicant in this way it works:
| Code: |
wpa_supplicant -Dwext -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -ieth1
|
If I add the -W options (like the init script does) I don't get any output from wpa_supplicant and wireless doesn't work.
| Code: |
wpa_supplicant -Dwext -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -W -ieth1
|
So, what does it mean the -W option (i haven't found nothing in the man page)?
There's a way to start wpa_supplicant with the init script without "-W" ?

Yes, Same thing here. the init script is doing something screwy. It sounds bug-worthy imho.
I am going to reboot to gentoo and see If i can figure this out.

Ok strangely enough I rebooted and this time it worked go figure. I am running ~ppc and I _think_ I updated baselayout yesterday before I left work.
sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.8-r1 is my current version.
my ps output.
| Code: | root 8420 1 0 14:07 ? 00:00:00 /sbin/wpa_supplicant -Dwext -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -W -B -ieth1 -P/var/run/wpa_supplicant-eth1.pid
root 8431 1 0 14:07 ? 00:00:00 /bin/wpa_cli -a/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_cli.sh -p/var/run/wpa_supplicant -ieth1 -P/var/run/wpa_cli-eth1.pid -B
|
Next I tried to restart the interface and it failed to start. Then I stopped it again rmmod bcm43xx modprobe bcm43xx started net.eth1 and it worked.. So for me it is something with removing the module and loading it again each time.
This was not the case yesterday... I could not get the init script to work but it would work fine from the CLI using wpa_supplicant

Make sure that you've *compiled in* the crypto stuff or specified that it be loaded before bcm43xx. Otherwise, bcm43xx and ieee80211 load, but the cryto isn't loaded until the first attempt is made and the result is an initial failure.

In my case, all modules compiled in kernel. |
