Hi,
Networkmanager no longer lists wireless networks after upgrading to Linux 3, it's like the card is not recognized.
I have a Broadcom BCM4313 and I never needed a driver because it was included in the kernel.
Let me know if you need any more information.
Thanks
Edit: I fixed it by unloading all the modules in lsmod | grep brcm and reloading brcmsmac again. I also added "blacklist bcma" to /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf and rebuilt my initramfs.

Thanks to your post now everything works just fine, but at login screen I receive this kind of messages:
Arch Linux 3.0-ARCH (myhost) (tty1)
myhost login: [ 15.025853] ieee80211 phy0: wl_ops_config: change monitor mode: false (implement)
[ 15.025956] ieee80211 phy0: wl_ops_config: change power-save mode: false (implement)
[ 15.026710] ieee80211 phy0: wl_ops_bss_info_changed: qos enabled: false (implement)
...
Does anyone know what they mean and how can I get rid of them?

When you upgraded you should have got
[2011-07-31 18:35] warning: /etc/rc.conf installed as /etc/rc.conf.pacnew
[2011-07-31 18:35] VERBOSE= in rc.conf no longer has any effect.
[2011-07-31 18:35] Please append 'quiet' to your kernel command line.
in your pacman output. Act accordingly.

Thanks Karol but I already added this line to menu.lst:
# (0) Arch Linux
title Arch Linux [/boot/vmlinuz-linux]
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-linux root=/dev/sda2 ro quiet
initrd /initramfs-linux.img
The messages disappear when bcma is not blackĺisted but then my wireless stops working.

Try 'loglevel=3'.

These messages are miscategorized as loglevel 3. They should be ranked much lower in the foodchain, probably 9 or 10 (debug). It's worth reporting upstream.

Many thanks Karol, your solution works just fine for me. I will use that until further developments.

capnion, please be so kind to also report this upstream as falconindy mentioned. Would help out a lot more people if they were in the same boat.
Thanks.
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

Ok I have reported the bug to the guys in AUR discussion about broadcom-wl, I cannot find anything more upstream than that. At bugs.archlinux.com they didn't seem to be very interested in it.

Since it is a normal kernel module, this is either relevant for the kernel.org team or broadcom.

Worked for me too, using a BCM43224 on Vostro 3500.
Just to be completely sure I've blacklisted brcmfmac too, on /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
Thanks!
