Problem with BCM4312 802.11b/g [14e4:4315]

[Cyrille]

Hi I'm a BLAG user with BCM4312 802.11b/g [14e4:4315] (rev 01). But don't seem work.


I tested to compile myself the driver like explain here
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#device_firmware_installation
with the source file : broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2 and too this source file
broadcom-wl-4.178.10.4.tar.bz2 but always the same error notification. 


- - -  - dmesg | tail
 b43 ssb0:0: firmware: requesting b43-open/lp0initvals15.fw
 b43 ssb0:0: firmware: requesting b43-open/lp0bsinitvals15.fw
 b43-phy0 ERROR: Rejected non-Free firmware
- - - 

The dir is b43-open --> specific to BLAG.

Finally, I have installed broadcom-wl from rpmfusion nonfree. It works great but it's non free :-( 


So I report the situation to you if ever you want the debug it!
