Bug#480171: linux-image-2.6.25-1-486: Pb dualboot XP/debian with the new b44 and ssb drivers

[giggz <giggzounet@gmail.com>]

Package: linux-image-2.6.25-1-486
Version: 2.6.25-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I have debian sid and XP on my laptop. I have just tested 2.6.25. All
work good for me except a strange behaviour with b44 and ssb.

When I boot on a old 2.6.24 kernel, I have internet through the b44
interface. I reboot under windows, I have internet.
Now When I boot on the new 2.6.25 kernel, I still have internet under
debian. But when I reboot under windows I can't have internet
anymore...

I have seen that there are lots of change with the ssb driver and the
capability to shut down the interface. Is there a link ?

How to fix this behaviour ? (no no...I can't remove XP...I still need
it for ntfs writing...)

Best regards,
Guillaume
