Thanks Larry. Yes, I have done the make modules_install install part as
well. I am also tempted to thing that I missed a step or something in
the kernel build process, but this seems to be the only disgruntled module.
dmesg | grep "disagrees" | grep -v b43 ==> returns null
Now if I "rmmod ssb" and then "modprobe b43", then the module loads
without issues. But does not "latch on" to the eth1 device (which is my
usual wireless)

Also attaching a snip from my .config file, if you could quickly take a
look and tell me if I am making some configuration mistake about ssb/b43
here:
