** Summary changed:
- ssb module breaks BCM4328 with ndiswrapper (regression from 2.6.24-10)
+ 14e4:4328 ssb module breaks BCM4328 with ndiswrapper (regression from
2.6.24-10)
** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing
** Description changed:
My laptop has a BCM4328 draft-N wireless chipset that requires
ndiswrapper. This broke between 2.6.24-10-generic and 2.6.24-11-generic
because the ssb module now grabs the device before ndiswrapper.

- Blacklisting ssb allows ndiswrapper to work again.
+ WORKAROUND: Blacklisting ssb allows ndiswrapper to work again.
- (Are free drivers supposed to actually support the 4328 yet? This would
- make me happy, but I didn’t think they do.)
