Are you certain that neither b43 nor ssb were loaded at the time? If ssb is in
memory, it will own the PCI device.

I just downloaded a fresh copy of the wl driver. It compiled cleanly. The only
patch I applied is the following:
Index: hybrid-wl/Makefile
===================================================================
--- hybrid-wl.orig/Makefile
+++ hybrid-wl/Makefile
@@ -34,3 +34,5 @@ clean:
install:
install -D -m 755 wl.ko /lib/modules/`uname
-r`/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/wl.ko
+ depmod -a
+
With it, the dependencies are properly setup. Note, the install line above is
improperly wrapped, but you get the idea.
