Wireless device not showing up in lspciHello there. I have a compaq v6210br notebook with a broadcom wireless network interface card. I have been using it with Debian for a long time, with just some minor strange problems, but recently I started to have a very weird and boring issue. Sometimes when I boot, the wireless card does not show up in lspci anymore. Then I reboot a few times, try numerous things, and then the thing suddenly shows up again after one of the boots. Is this hardware problem? Or is there any chance of being software related? Perhaps a problem in the device's firmware?... Are there any resetting procedures I can try to run when the board disappears? thanks Bookmark/Search this post with:
