 Hi, Larry,
 I did a quick test and, indeed, the value calculation is the same in both 
 cases. Sorry about the confusion.

 However, I found another problem.
 I am running Gentoo with 2.6.18 kernel with the LED activation and 
 interrupt enabled patches.
 After running ifconfig eth1 up, the card is up, the WiFi LED is on, and 
 everything works as expected.

 However, when I close and re-open the lid of my laptop, I lost the ability 
 to restore it.

 I am not running the suspend software, I have a 'vbetool' installed on top 
 of GNOME.
 Since evrything was working, I was able to capture the dmesg output, which 
 is attached.

 I didn't see anything in the log that indicates an error. Is this dmesg 
 output from before or after
 the lid closing? I don't see either the suspend or resume debug messages 
 from bcm43xx.
 This dmesg is after the lid has been open. The WiFi LED was still on.
 However, the screen was not restored.

 There is a report of bcm43xx not resuming correctly after suspend to disk. 
 Unfortunately, my
 graphics system crashes when I try to suspend and I have to do a power off. 
 That prevents me from
 testing the suspend or resume code.
 It might be the same issue, or the different one.
 You can try to install the vbetool on you laptop, and check if it won't 
 crash.
 Then we can check for the bcm43xx driver behavior
 
 This is the software I installed:
 http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~mjg59/vbetool/

It won't even compile here. Perhaps it is because I have an x86_64 system. I 
don't have time to
debug that program.

 You can use the debian package or its source:
 http://packages.debian.org/testing/utils/vbetool

 They have an amd64 package thus it should compile just fine.

   
VBETOOLS is useless on x86_64, the package is only for i386 to i686
32bit machines, so your suggestion is useless in this case.

Don't tell me, I only have i386, tell the debian maintainer. He obviously sees 
some usage, there.

Funny that, it seems to work quite fine here on my system.

$ file /usr/sbin/vbetool
/usr/sbin/vbetool: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), 
for GNU/Linux 2.6.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

I end up needing it to get my backlight to turn back on when opening my 
laptop, I've got an ACPI script calling

/usr/sbin/vbetool dpms on

So

Maybe it will run fine on you video.

Also, I tried to turn the card on, then off, and then close/open the lid. It 
didn't work as well.
Which means that any card activity stops this software from restoring the 
screen.

Thank you.
