<div dir="ltr">following the great success i had with emails to Conspire, here's my most urgent problem:<br>running Ubuntu Maverick (10.10) on a Dell Latitude E6400, with an internal Broadcom BCM4312 LP-PHY rev1, and lspci claim to see something else called "Broadcom Corp. BCM5880 Secure Applications Processor", which i don't know if related or not.<br>
<br>i am running B43-fwcutter with the latest open B43 driver (not the one in "Additional Drivers", as it is broken). every once in a while, and mostly after an intensive transmit (like rsync of my home to NAS) the connection break and reconnection constantly fails. only unloading and reloading the driver ("sudo modprobe -r b43" and "sudo modprobe b43") helps, and i can reconnect.<br>
<br>went through /var/syslog and did not find anything to explain (or maybe i do not know what to look for). wondered if anyone else ran into this Deus Ex Machina, and if there is any resolution to it.<br><br>will gladly provide output of any printout requested.<br>
<br>and thanks, once more and up front.<br><br>Ehud<br><br></div>
