Hi,
I'm testing new b43 modules for my 14e4:4315 broadcom card.
I've compiled and installed compat-wireless-2009-09-16 in a debian
machine with kernel version 2.6.30-6.
During the boot I experience this problem:
$ dmesg|egrep "b43|ssb"

I faced the exactly same issue as Mauro did. +1 from me, but currently
have
no time to take a deeper look.
Thanks
Hi,
I had the same problem with the ssb module and compat-wireless in ubuntu
9.04. The problem is that the ssb module is integrated into the
initramfs image. The version out of the initramfs image is loaded on
startup and not the version of compat-wireless. Running "sudo
update-initramfs -u" after installing compat-wireless and restaing the
system fixes the problem for me. Either Debian/Ubuntu should remove ssb
form default initramfs image or compat-wireless should update the image
with the install command. At least the compat-wireless documentation
needs an update.

Tim, do you guys update the initramfs upon installation of lbm? If a
user does not use lbm and uses compat-wireless I suppose we need to do
something similar.
Luis
No, initramfs is not updated when LBM is installed. I think maybe its a bug
that ssb is in the initramfs modules list since AFAIK its not a boot
essential device. Even in the netboot case, ssb/b44 should be in a udeb.
That would make life much easier.
Luis
I'm looking at the Karmic initramfs-tools package and am not seeing
_any_ reference to ssb or b44.
