I'm sorry that you had troubles with the BCM94311MCG in your laptop, but I think most of your problems are fixed in driver b43 in any of the 2.6.24-rcX kernels. In any case, the place to report such problems is [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have both rev 1 and 2 of that PCIe card for my laptop, and I have no kernel or DMA exceptions, the system never freezes, and my throughput is higher with the b43 driver than with Windows using the Broadcom driver.
