BCM43xx Linux Driver Project
============================

About this software
-------------------

The goal of this project is to develop a linux driver for Broadcom
BCM43xx chips, based on the specification at
http://bcm-specs.sipsolutions.net/

The project page is http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/


Requirements
------------

1) Linux Kernel 2.6.16 or later
http://www.kernel.org/

You may want to configure your kernel with:

CONFIG_DEBUG_FS (optional):
-> Kernel hacking
-> Debug Filesystem

2) SoftMAC IEEE 802.11 Networking Stack extension and patched ieee80211
modules:
http://softmac.sipsolutions.net/

3) Firmware Files

Please try fwcutter. Fwcutter can extract the firmware from various
binary driver files. It supports driver files from Windows, MacOS and
Linux. You can get fwcutter from http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/.
Also, fwcutter comes with a README file for further instructions.
