Subject: hints an infos to start debuging on hp-wmi

Hi All,

i had many trouble with the wlan card of my girl friends HP zv5265ea
Laptop. It is a BCM4303 Wlan Card. The Problem i think is the
hp-wmi driver, so i want to debug it.

It would be nice if someody gives me a start point how to ?
I currently using the 2.6.29-rc7 kernel sources.
Which sources or header files do i have to modify ?

Are there any developers documentation for the hp-wmi ?

regards markus

Is the problem related to RF-Kill? If not, then hp-wmi is probably
not the best place to start...

./drivers/platform/x86/hp-wmi.c

No idea...

Good luck!
