Hi, I tried to build the bcm43xx driver from the debian package with a self-made kernel, but I failed.
Firstly I needed the header files for ieee80211softmac. After building and installing the package I found the include files in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15.1. The bcm43xx make file searches for them in my kernel tree /usr/src/linux-2.6.15.1/. How can I "merge" them except copy the header files into the kernel directory? But I did it (copy the header files into the kernel directory) and then got this message: #v+ CC [M] /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_main.o /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_main.c:667: warning: 'bcm43xx_disassociate' defined but not used /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_main.c:696: warning: 'bcm43xx_associate' defined but not used CC [M] /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_dma.o CC [M] /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_debugfs.o CC [M] /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_radio.o CC [M] /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_phy.o CC [M] /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_power.o CC [M] /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_wx.o /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_wx.c: In function 'bcm43xx_wx_set_channelfreq': /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_wx.c:118: warning: unused variable 'softmac' /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_wx.c: At top level: /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_wx.c:227: warning: 'bcm43xx_wx_set_sensitivity' defined but not used /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_wx.c:237: warning: 'bcm43xx_wx_get_sensitivity' defined but not used /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_wx.c:525: warning: 'bcm43xx_wx_set_retry' defined but not used /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_wx.c:535: warning: 'bcm43xx_wx_get_retry' defined but not used /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_wx.c:575: warning: 'bcm43xx_wx_set_power' defined but not used /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_wx.c:585: warning: 'bcm43xx_wx_get_power' defined but not used CC [M] /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_pio.o CC [M] /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_ilt.o LD [M] /usr/src/modules/bcm43xx/bcm43xx.o Building modules, stage 2.
