Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-source
bcm43xx is completely broken in the feisty kernel.
The reason is that it's using heavily obsolete code for bcm43xx stuff. People
keep bugging me and wasting my time with this.
There is _only_ one possible way to fix the issue:
Drop bcm43xx-d80211 and misc/ssb.c and replace it by the in linux-2.6.20
included bcm43xx-softmac.
d80211 and bcm43xx-d80211 is _not_ ready for distribution kernels, yet.
Additionally you are using heavily obsolete code (The old SSB library) in the
feisty kernel that I dropped development for since several months.
Immediately kill linux-source-2.6.20-2.6.20/ubuntu/misc/ssb.c please.
Also kill linux-source-2.6.20-2.6.20/ubuntu/wireless/d80211/bcm43xx and replace
it by current softmac based stable kernel.
