I put this in a private build of the Fedora 8 kernel in place of the
the one that was added a few days ago.

This one works, but I get "PHY transmission error", probably because
the rfkill switch has disabled it. I see two LED devices and an input
device were registered but pushing the rfkill switch has no effect.
Googling doesn't yield any directions for enabling the switch...

I don't think the PHY transmission error is caused by the rfkill switch, but I have no idea where it arises. It has been present since I enabled the device with 64-bit DMA.

I have not determined how to get rfkill to react to the LED switch, but now that the BCM4311 rev 02 card is working, I should have some time to look at it.
