I have 2) and 3), plus have a Lenovo S10 that I haven't used in months that appears (based on a GP and some research) to be susceptible to this issue. In fact, I think I hit this issue and started using wl oh so long ago (sorry!). I'm away for the NA holiday, but I can try to verify I have 1) and then poke at this on Sunday. I'll let you know. _______________________________________________ b43-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/b43-dev
