Public bug reported: Ubuntu 10.04 & 10.10 beta, Kernels: 2.6.34 & 2.6.35 On HP laptop (envy series) we observe an intermittent high pitch noise (morse code) from the Broadcom Corporation Device 4353 (wifi+bluetooth). Actually I'm using STA/Broadcom driver detected by ubuntu.
When the noise appears: - always after the splash screen during boot - when the CPU is idle How to reduce the noise: - turn off bluetooth How to eliminate the noise: - removing CPU from idle state - turn off the Broadcom driver (switch physically off the wifi) This issue is only observed on Linux. ** Affects: bcmwl (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: 4353 broadcom high noise pitch ** Description changed: - On HP laptop (envy series) we observe an intermittent high pitch noise - (morse code) from the Broadcom Corporation Device 4353 (wifi+bluetooth). + Ubuntu 10.04 & 10.10 beta, Kernels: 2.6.34 & 2.6.35 + On HP laptop (envy series) we observe an intermittent high pitch noise (morse code) from the Broadcom Corporation Device 4353 (wifi+bluetooth).
