<p>Wireless chipmaker Broadcom Thursday announced it will be releasing a fully open source Linux driver for its current generation of 802.11n chipsets. This means that Wi-Fi, one of the <a href="http://www.desktoplinux.com/news/NS4466236354.html" target="_blank">most problematic peripherals</a> in the entire Linux ecosystem, will become a lot simpler to set up.</p>
<p>"The driver, while still a work in progress, is released as full source and uses the native mac80211 stack. It supports multiple current chips (BCM4313, BCM43224, BCM43225) as well as providing a framework for supporting additional chips in the future, including mac80211-aware embedded chips," Broadcom Scientist Henry Ptasinkski posted in a <a href="http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/55418" target="_blank">gmane newsgroup today</a>.</p>
<p>With this driver source code available, Linux distributions can now include native support for certain Broadcom Wi-Fi chips. Until now, many of these required users to extract Broadcom's proprietary firmware and replace it with custom firmware in order for certain wireless devices to work. Even then, <a href="http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43" target="_blank">many Broadcom chips were totally unsupported</a>.</p>
