Thanks to you all, this email is reaching you via my wireless interface 
:-) Johannes, I edited the udev rules and then realized I also need to 
have firmware :) Did that. Things good.

But one problem still remains. When I boot in, the b43 modules does not 
load. It complains :
[   42.660654] ssb: Sonics Silicon Backplane found on PCI device 
0000:0c:00.0
[   53.325307] b43: disagrees about version of symbol ssb_device_is_enabled
[   53.325313] b43: Unknown symbol ssb_device_is_enabled
[   53.325466] b43: disagrees about version of symbol 
ssb_pcicore_dev_irqvecs_enable
[   53.325468] b43: Unknown symbol ssb_pcicore_dev_irqvecs_enable
[   53.325553] b43: disagrees about version of symbol ssb_bus_may_powerdown
[   53.325555] b43: Unknown symbol ssb_bus_may_powerdown

< and more similar lines....>

So to load the module, I have to :
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/shouryas# rmmod ssb; modprobe b43

and then I get the wireless stuff fine.

Any thoughts on why at boot time the module linking would fail but 
happen OK subsequently ?

Anyway, thanks to Larry and you for your help.
Shourya
