cut'n'paste from earlier in the thread: This is on a HP DV2140eu laptop, 1GB ram, amd turion64 TL52 x2 (1600MHz), kubuntu 8.04 broadcom flavor: 4311 $ uname -a Linux laptop 2.6.25 #38 SMP Thu Apr 24 16:45:44 CEST 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux Kernel pulled from mainline git yesterday. I use the b43 driver exclusively. The wireless works despite the messages about phy transmission errors the driver prints out. Below is dmesg from moment of killswitch disabled to killswitch enabled, when connecting to an AP.
