apologies if this was previously answered. I actually saw an answer for it on page 2 but I think it is out of date.
| Code: | bcm43xx: Error: Microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed.

someone solved this on page 2 by rebuilding hotplug but aren't the hotplug and coldplug scripts deprecated? I thought udev handles them now so they don't need to be run? secondly I have an HP Pavillion zv6000 I know it has a PCIE bus but I don't know if this card is on it. if is (or there's a chance that that's the problem) should I grab 2.6.20-rc6 kernel, or patch gentoo-sources 2.6.19-r5?
I have the 4318.

No, it's not related to hotplug or udev. As the error message states, you cut your firmware from a v4 driver. Since you are using the SoftMAC driver, you need to use a v3 driver.
You can get the correct firmware from here: http://bu3sch.de/bcm43xx_fw.php
If you have a 4318, it's a regular PCI card. All of the PCI-E cards are 4311 or 4312's.

That's not a crash, it's an assertion because the driver doesn't really support all card versions yet. It's really just a warning and something that the developers can use to find issues.
These lines:
bcm43xx: IRQ_READY timeout
bcm43xx: core_up for active 802.11 core failed (-19)
Indicate that something went wrong with the card, the easiest way to fix it is to reboot the machine. Does it work after rebooting?

XenoTerraCide, what is your card version ? mine is 20 and the 3.xx version of the firmware works really fine  I'm using it right now

sorry for taking so long to reply. it's revision 02. I've switched to OpenSuse temporarily on my laptop though. Need to learn more about "RPM based distro's".

Is there any chance to be an IRQ conflict? I changed one PCI slot already and still the same, but if it looks like an IRQ conflict I could change with one slot on a time.

I used that patch but still the same problem.
BTW I don't know if I patched correctly: I modified only the "#define BCM43xx_IRQWAIT_MAX_RETRIES 50" in the kernel source (2.6.19.2) and then recompiled the kernel. Is this correct?

Still the same.

PS Am I suppose to config /etc/conf.d/wireless and conf.d/net?
PPS. Should I upgrade to 2.6.20?
edit: The problem is that "iwlist scan" reports no results, as ifconfig enables eth1 successfully after rmmod and modprobe bcm43xx.

No... it's better. Last time you had this fatal error:
bcm43xx: IRQ_READY timeout
bcm43xx: core_up for active 802.11 core failed (-19)
I don't see it this time, so that problem is fixed. You should definitely upgrade to 2.6.20, but if iwlist isn't reporting any results, you probably have a wifi button. Larry's latest patchset should include a fix for displaying the status of the button better. You may also need an ACPI button support application such as acer_acpi.

Okay, it's still failing in the same place. Perhaps you do have a conflict, but I can't say for sure, I'm a PowerPC person. :p Maybe play with ACPI.
A wifi button is a button on your computer that enables/disables the wireless card. What kind of computer is this?

It is an Athloon XP+ 1600, but I don't have any wifi button. This Asus cards works like a charm on Windows, though.

Do you think is it possible that I've chosen the wrong firmware? Should I try anotherone?
Also is it possible to work with ndiswrapper?

No, there is no difference between most firmware. I cannot comment on ndiswrapper, you'll have to take ndiswrapper questions to another thread.

You have been right about ACPI. I disabled it in the kernel and now it works. Thank you very much for your effort.
PS Is the 11Mb/s the upper speed bcm43xx driver works for now?
PPS Do I really need ACPI reenabled? as I don't use any sensors at all.
