Hello, I'm running NetBSD 11.0-BETA (WII) on a Nintendo Wii (build from Oct 5, 202= 5). uname -a: NetBSD wii 11.0_BETA NetBSD 11.0_BETA (WII) #0 Fri Oct 3 16:09:55 UTC 2025 = mk [email protected]:/usr/src/sys/arch/evbppc/compile/WII evbppc dmesg | grep -i bwi -n 74:[ 1.209984] bwi0 at sdmmc1 function 1: broadcom Wireless 75:[ 1.209984] bwi0: autoconfiguration error: no BBP id for device id 0= x044b I followed Jared McNeill=E2=80=99s instructions for adding Wii WLAN support= to -current (see: https://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-powerpc/2025/01/19/ms= g003669.html) and installed the v3 firmware per bwi(4). The driver detects = the device but reports =E2=80=9Cno BBP id for device id 0x044b=E2=80=9D and= , as expected, I only see the loopback adapter lo0. I suspect this may be a= hardware revision not present in the driver's table. If that=E2=80=99s the= case, is it possible to add support for this device? Thanks, DeltaResero
