Hi, I just noticed that the new b43 driver for Broadcom BCM43xx wireless devices doesn't wake up as often as the old bcm43xx driver. The old driver used to wake up about 50 times/s, the new driver is back to around 10 wakeups/s. It's a busy network over here, I can see around 8 different access points. I expect less wakeups at home where I have only three access points (and two of them are mostly idle).
The new b43 driver is available in 2.6.24-rc2. Note that you need new (v4) firmware. See http://www.linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 for details. Erik -- They're all fools. Don't worry. Darwin may be slow, but he'll eventually get them. -- Matthew Lammers in alt.sysadmin.recovery
