Hello, I am trying to get my MSI PC54g (broadcom 94320 - PCI) to work, and I can't. I am using ndiswrapper 0.6 and the driver ms68bm.inf from MSI website. Ndiswrapper compiles and installs fine, but when loading the driver, among things that seem to work, I get: (/var/log/messages) ndiswrapper: error log: C000138D, length: 1 (00000103) My distribution is fedora core 1. Things that I already tried: - another driver - changing the PCI slot to have a different IRQ - rebuild the kernel myself (it's a patched 2.4.22) - upgrading to the last fedora update of the kernel, and build it myself - trying to play with pci=3Dnoacpi, acpi=3Doff, and noapic kernel command= -line options, as I read in a forum. Things I haven't tried yet: - downloading the last 2.4 kernel from kernel.org - downloading the last 2.6 kernel from kernel.org - testing the card with windows (I don't have windows) - testing the card with linuxant driverloader - tweaking the bios The only thing related I found is on the linuxant website: http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/limitations.php (fourth point) It says that some PCI cards based on broadcom chipsets fail with error code DRIVER_FAILURE (0xC000138D) and error value 0x0103 on some older PCs. And my computer is an old PC from 1999 (440BX, sdram... old) and the erro= r code/value matches... So, is this a known issue ? Is it the same as described on linuxant website ? Is there something to do (except buying another card) ? For my information, if it is a known issue, what is the problem ? Fran=E7ois |
