I'm afraid to go to F8 until I can get the card working with the newer
kernel(s). Which is the way to go with F6? b43, b43legacy, bcm4318? Are
these using ndiswrapper or are they native drivers? I'm very confused! I
thought I had made progress getting the radio on and no errors about
version 3 firmware being too old but at the last step when
networkmanager tries to connect, the entire system (always and
consistently) totally locks up requiring a hard boot. Should I be
blacklisting b43 or b43legacy or bcm4318. (I'm only blacklisting bcm4318
at the moment.)
