Hi All,
i do not get my Wlan Card with BCM4303 Chip to work.
My System is Debian Testing 32-bit with Kernel 2.6.25-2 from Debian,
therefore i am using the Driver b43legacy.
I tried to connect this Wlan Card with my Wireless Printer.
It is a Ad-Hoc Connection with,
SSID=3Dkleopatra
Channel=3D10
Authentification=3Dnon
Encryption=3D128-bit Wep
Here it comes the Outout from <lspci>,

Memory at e0104000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=3D8K]

I tried some Howtos, but it didn't work.
<ifconfig> show's the following,

The Ubuntu user and I have discovered that his computer needs the
hp-dmi module that is part of the mainline kernel since 2.6.27-rc6.
This module handles the rfkill button that does not produce a
scancode. I think you will need to get that one for you to be able to
turn the radio on.

Your card can receive, but not transmit due to a problem with the
rfkill switch handling in b43legacy. I'm working on this problem with
a Ubuntu user, and will post patches as soon as the problem is fixed.

Thanks for your Support.
I installed the Kernel 2.6.26-1 as Maximilian said.
I hope i can try to get my Card to work.
If you need some Messages then let me know.

So the hp-dmi Module is only available in 2.6.27 ?

Hi Larry,
i thought it would be helpful to post my Messages. :-)
If not ignore this Message.:-)
I am using the NetworkManager Applet to show and connect to Wlan Networ=

My wireless Button shines blue when my Linux System starts.
However after i login onto myGnome Desktop and after some time the=20
NetworkManager Applet shows me my Wireless Network.

You should check the posting at
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0809.3/1423.html.
Perhaps you can activate your radio by software, even if the button
does not work.

Actually i am looking whether i missing some Kernel
Options.
As we can see in the Boot Messages i have to activate the RF-kill
Button by pressing, but this does not activate my wlan.
Any Ideas?

You are right. I pressed the Hardware wlan Button, but the LED Light
does not change. And the program <acpi_listen> does not show that
any acpi signal is sended.
I am not sure whether i can watch this signals with <acpi_listen>.

Ok i tried <showkey> during pressing my hardware butto in a VT,
but this shows nothing.
I have "hp Extras" as modul. Other buttons on my Laptop are working.
I can activate/deactivate the wlan led by using the netwotkmanager
applet <nm-applet> under gnome.
What is WMI Magic ?

Your log does not indicate that you pressed the button to turn the
wifi on. All we see is that the hardware switch was off.
Is your radio on/off button one that generates a keycode, or does it
need the WMI magic to be detected? If you are running X, then switch
away by CTRL/ALT/F1 and log in. Use the showkey command and press the
radio on/off switch. If it shows a scan code, report it back here. You
get back to X with CTRL/ALT/F7.

CONFIG_LEDS_TRIGGERS=y
CONFIG_MAC80211_LEDS=y
CONFIG_RFKILL=m
CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT=m
CONFIG_INPUT_POLLDEV=m
My b43legacy Driver is built as modul.
