I'm sorry. The patch that _you_ quoted fixes a blinking LED and nothing else. It does _not_ fix loading of rfkill or b43 in any way. It does, however, fix loading of rfkill-input. But the b43 module operation does _not_ depend in any way on the rfkill-input module, except the tiny LED that doesn't blink if it's not loaded. I hope you understood now that the thread on bcm43xx-dev was NOT about your requirement to load rfkill before b43. > I have complete current userspace as of yesterday's Ubuntu Hardy Heron > development archives. Ok. I will install a copy of Ubuntu Hardy Heron and check if I can reproduce this. However the fact that this does not happen on older Ubuntu platforms and does not happen on Fedora leads to the conclusion that it is a bug in Hardy Heron that I am not responsible for. And you also do realise that Hardy Heron is the current development version of Ubuntu? Development versions have bugs. > One last thing. I've been nice to you. Please be nice to me. If you simply stop blaming bugs on me that I am not responsible for at all, that is a deal. What about filing a bug at the ubuntu bugzilla? PS: Note that Ubuntu is known to break the broadcom driver every now and then. But I can not change that. -- Greetings Michael. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
