GNU/Linux
At boot time, I see several error messages about wlan (b43) (below)
wlan0 does not come up. ifup wlan0 fails.
# locate b43.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-686/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/b43/b43.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-686/updates/drivers/net/wireless/b43/b43.ko
The second one corresponds to the driver built from
compat-drivers-3.7.6-1
After boot, I log in and
# modprobe -r b43
# modprobe b43
# ifup wlan0
and wlan0 works!
It appears I have some disagreement between the compat-drivers-3.7.6-1
driver and the kernel. I have the correct headers (see below)
Just to be sure, I did a make uninstall, deleted the
compat-drivers-3.7.6-1 directory, downloaded the tar.bz2 again, and
repeated the build/install process. Same results.
In the build process, there was one warning about initialization
removing qualifiers on a variable...
Any ideas?

After more investigation, it appears that some time is needed between
loading the driver and ifup.
# ifdown wlan0 && modprobe -v -r b43 && modprobe -v b43 && ifup wlan0
fails.
# ifdown wlan0 && modprobe -v -r b43 && modprobe -v b43 && sleep 1 &&
ifup wlan0
works.
