Good. So we know that blacklisting does work, and we just forgot the
update-initramfs.

Argh, sorry. The last -b is wrong, of course. Can you try again with

install wl modprobe -r b43 b44 b43legacy ssb; modprobe --ignore-install
wl $CMDLINE_OPTS; modprobe --ignore-install b44

Right, due to the erroneous -b.

Ah, thanks.

Okay, but it doesn't mention wl; presumably because it's already
loaded; Can you please keep above blacklist file, stop NetworkManager
(sudo /etc/init.d/network-manager stop), sudo rmmod wl, and do the
same modprobe -n -b call again?
