Thanks, I haven't been able to find it. However, this report doesn't mention the errors I see in my logs, hence *maybe* not the same issue. > > Head of dmesg | grep b43 gives: > > [ 2.407936] b43-pci-bridge 0000:02:03.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, > > low) -> IRQ 17 > > [ 11.363081] b43-phy0: Broadcom 4318 WLAN found > > [ 19.366913] input: b43-phy0 as /devices/virtual/input/input8 > > [ 19.476093] b43 ssb0:0: firmware: requesting b43/ucode5.fw > > [ 19.550248] b43 ssb0:0: firmware: requesting b43/pcm5.fw > > [ 19.578587] b43 ssb0:0: firmware: requesting b43/b0g0initvals5.fw > > [ 19.604072] b43 ssb0:0: firmware: requesting b43/b0g0bsinitvals5.fw > > [ 19.744094] b43-phy0: Loading firmware version 410.2160 (2007-05-26 > > 15:32:10) > > > > I am quite surprised to see a firmware dated of 2007 is loaded (I have > > tried and run > > again install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh very recently, just to be sure I have the > > right firmware installed). > > That's the firmware you want to have.

Can this be so hard? I was refering to bug #480053 in which the exact same error was reported, and fixed by installing another firmware. Sorry, but I cannot understand why you react as you do. Can this be so hard to be a bit more patient with users reporting bugs, even not against the right package?
