Bad news. Just like my self-compiled 2.6.25 and 2.6.27 kernels my laptop froze with your kernel and the wl.ko module, too. It didn't kernel panic and it lasted significantly longer than with 2.6.18 but it still froze in the end. I'm back to 2.6.18-164-11-bug4139.4192.4196 now. Instead of Broadc

[CentOS] Kernel Panic with wl.ko (Broadcom wireless driver) [CentOS 5.4]

Been experimenting with CentOS 5.4 some more. In order to get my wireless card to work (Broadcom BCM4311) I need Broadcom's wl.ko driver (http:// www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php). It compiles fine after the necessary modification in typedef.h, loads and wireless works. However, as
