Ticket #40 (closed defect: wontfix)

To get wifi working on some kernels (eg. mine andy-tracking), you have to unbind/bind sdio bus

Description

Sometimes when wifi doesn't work, unbind/bind helps. This is not the case when CONFIG_AR6000_WLAN=m. This helps:

echo s3c2440-sdi >/sys/bus/platform/drivers/s3c2440-sdi/unbind
sleep 1
echo s3c2440-sdi >/sys/bus/platform/drivers/s3c2440-sdi/bind

just run it once system starts, after that, wifi works perfectly even after suspend.

Solution: add a page about it to wiki page.

Please tell me where to put it (should I start a new page?)

jc, please report this to the openmoko-kernel mailinglist! I'm sure Werner Almesberger is pretty interested in debugging various WLAN issues. Afterwards, put a link to the mailinglist here.

Turns out its a problem for a single, even otherwise horribly broken microsd card. I think it doesn't apply to anyone here anymore.

Maybe someone will look at it but I think they'll just leave it be.

I added information about this to the cards page and I think this is no longer an issue we need to mention.

This one is the culrit: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Supported_microSD_cards/SD-C02G
