Hello,

I'm back using Linux on this laptop (HP Compaq Presario C742N) and have 
such upgraded Kernel and b43. I was getting very unreliable(almost none) 
with 2.6.24 so I have jumped to 2.6.25-rc8. So with this version it 
works for a period, then it bails. I tend to notice more of a bail if 
running rtorrent or something generating lots of connections. Thruput is 
fine though, I can still download at my ADSL connections max if just 
downloading with wget or similar.

Here is some debugging info, please let me know if I haven't provided 
enough:
