Thank you.

Debian's package of Linux 2.6.32 includes all the later fixes that
implement automatic switching to PIO mode.  It is only missing the
correction to that message.

I don't if it will help, but you can force b43 to use PIO mode from the
start by running:

    rmmod b43
    modprobe b43 pio=1

If that helps, you can make this configuration persistent by running:

    echo >/etc/modprobe.d/b43.conf 'options b43 pio=1'
