Hi,
The b43 driver in the linux kernel 2.6.24-rc7 works really good :) .
Keep it up! However, one thing is bugging me: Why does the card stop
sending/receiving packets when I close the lid? Is this behaviour
intended in the new driver? If yes, can I disable it?
I guess the machine goes to suspend, right?
You obviously can't use the machine when it's suspended.

I'm pretty sure there are no lid related routines in the wireless
driver, though. ;) So the problem must be somewhere else.

and it seems fixed. I only removed nl80211 from the configuration. I
