Hi,

 Miles described a b43 speed problem in the thread

        2.6.25-rc9 -- bcm4306 performance is in the toilet

 (over 2.6.24) and not being able to see anything from his logs/packet
 captures/... I asked him to bisect. This resulted in

 commit 61bca6eb85c863603d6054530e2f65c3b9aba85b

    b43: rewrite A PHY initialization

 which is a huge commit and hence a bit of a problem. Does anyone have
 suggestions how to proceed?

 I have very similar hardware, maybe this card is affected by the
 boardflags problems we found recently? Miles, can you give us
  * lspci -vn -s 01:06.0
  * the kernel init messages when ssb is built with debugging

Here you go:

# lspci -vn -s 01:06.0
01:06.0 0280: 14e4:4320 (rev 03)
	Subsystem: 1057:7110

I don't know what got garbled, but we also need the b43 debugging information. In particular, what is the PHY rev?
