This completely broke wireless for me on my laptop. b43 driver, i686
architecture. The wlan0 device would show up, but then you couldn't do
much of anything with it.

Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 365e
Interesting, because the driver hasn't changed at all since the base
2.6.34 was released:
dmcgee@galway ~/projects/linux-2.6 (master)
$ (find -name b43*) | xargs git diff v2.6.34..v2.6.34.2 | cat
<no output here>
The diff on drivers/net/wireless didn't look odd either; specific
(other) drivers changed but nothing that sticks out as affecting b43.

it has ssb changes and b43 relies on it
Thanks, Ionuț. So much for a stable release...I should probably let
them know upstream, no? Is this something to send to linux-stable?
-Dan
it was reported and we have a patch available
