I could do a test, but I don't know how to verify it. In the meantime I have the b43 firmware installed, so this is not a problem now.

[Bug 950295] Re: b43: missing firmware causes kernel panic
Probably the easiest way to test is to temporarily move the /lib/firmware/b43 directory to another location, then run 'sudo modprobe -r b43; sudo modprobe b43'. When your done you can move the directory back to its original location. Another way would be to remove linux-firmware-nonfree before running the modprobe commands. The disadvantage of this is that you may need to use a wired connection to reinstall the package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/950295 Title: b43: missing firmware causes kernel panic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/950295/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
