And as far as I know b43 does not do that yet. So, can you please give the device another go without ps? (BTW: mac80211 prints a debug text (if enabled in kconfig), whenever the device goes or leaves the hibernation mode... do you see any of those too?) > I don't know if this is a regression, or not.
