OK. But then I'm back to my original question: why all those

Apr  1 11:03:56 notebook kernel: b43-phy0 ERROR: PHY transmission error
Apr  1 11:04:03 notebook kernel: printk: 26 messages suppressed.

in /var/log/messages?
No idea.

Or if we're supposed to use the old 4.80.53 firmware, why the deprecated message?

Both firmwares are currently supported.  The message is to encourage
you to prepare for the future.  That is pretty much what "deprecated"
means. :-)

The upstream list probably won't respond: they obviously think only a portion of the new driver was included - not the whole thing.

They should pull their ears past their sphincters...

Still there in 2.6.24.4-64.fc8. I'll bugzilla it.
