The b43 driver will need an incompatible firmware upgrade, soon. I'm probably going to do this in 2.6.25 or 2.6.26. The update will require people to download and extract updated officially supported firmware. The firmware will be linked to from the usual place at linuxwireless.org. The driver will print a verbose error message when it detects too old firmware and abort initialization. This is needed in order to add support for new devices (N-PHY). Broadcom changed the ABI of the firmware, so we are forced to also change the ABI of the driver. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience. -- Greetings Michael. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
