BenCmjg59: hey, can you tell me the steps you took to get your bcm43xx working?12:21
BenCI have firmware, but it doesn't seem to be doing much12:21
mjg59BenC: Brought it up, set the rate, set the essid, did iwlist scan a couple of times and then dhcliented it12:22
BenCwhat's the value for the rate, and does 54g work?12:22
mjg59Last I tried (a while back) only 11b worked12:23
mjg59iwconfig foo rate 11M seemed to work12:23
BenCok12:23
BenCwep isn't working I suspect12:27
BenCiwlist eth2 scanning12:27
BenCthat showed my two AP's though12:28
BenCso that's promising12:28
BenC(this is with an airport extreme)12:28
mjg59Yeah, no wep yet12:28
mjg59Unless you use the devscape stack12:28
BenCthat sucks, I hate having this airo card in here when I have built-in 54g12:28
BenCand I can't disable wep since I have my AP's on high power with a 5 foot gain antenna12:30
BenClast thing I need is some hillbilly hijacking my b/w12:30

dilingermjg59: hey, question for you.  is there a way to reduce fan speed via acpi?  i want to quiet a machine down a bit.05:34
mjg59dilinger: Have you got a /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/foo/trip_points ?05:36
mjg59If so, and if it contains trip points that describe active cooling, then yes05:37
dilingerthermal_zone is empty05:38
dilingerkeep in mind i did a breezy server install05:38
dilingerso i may not have the proper packages in place05:38
dilingeri just installed laptop-mode and powernowd, and that reduced cpu frequency05:39
mjg59No, if you don't have anything there then you're pretty much screwed05:40
dilinger:/05:40

fsmjg59: my laptop has the trip_points on 3 different thermal zones, how can I regulate the fan with this =)07:23
fsbut /proc/acpi/fan/ is empty07:23
mjg59fs: Do the trip points contain active stuff, or just passive?07:31
fsjust passive07:34
mjg59You can't, then :)07:36

mjg59BenC: Latest version of the sdhci driver seems to roughly work09:44
BenCsdhci?09:44
BenCbtw, I couldn't get devicescape+bcm working09:45
BenCaccording the the HOWTO, if it doesn't work, I need to drink more beer and keep trying09:45
BenCdidn't feel like getting drunk and frustrated at the same time though09:45
mjg59Hmm. I haven't tried the dscape stuff at all.09:47
mjg59sdhci is a standard for SD card readers09:48
mjg59A lot of the flash readers in laptops implement it09:48
dilingeri see 2.6.15-9 on packages.u.c, but for some reason apt doesn't see it09:59
mjg59dilinger: -10 is uploaded, but has to get through NEW10:09
dilingerah, ok10:09
mjg59-9 may already have been migrated out of the packages file10:09
