Re: Broadcom 4311 WLAN card...

FYI Suspend/Resume is iffy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not. When it does not, sometimes it unloads fine, sometimes it says it's waiting for a reference (or 3) to be cleared before unloading. Only a reboot will cure that one... as the message repeats but the reference count never decreases.

In all cases the unload is preceded by an ifconfig eth1 down
unload = "rmmod b43"

Hi Larry,

When resuming from suspend-to-disk, I get the following message

Would this be easy to fix, e.g. by re-uploading the firmware in
b43_resume? This does not seem to be done or it does not work
correctly.

Michael,

Have you done any tests with suspend/resume? I have not.
