Package: b43-fwcutter
Version: 1:011-5
Severity: normal
Hi,
Using kernel 2.6.28 and latest b43-fwcutter from Lenny, I get a lot of
"b43-phy0 ERROR: PHY transmission error" lines in my syslog.
Just like bug #480053 for kernel 2.6.25.
Other possible useful information:
$ lspci -vvn|grep 43 -A7

Head of dmesg | grep b43 gives:

[ 19.744094] b43-phy0: Loading firmware version 410.2160 (2007-05-26 15:32:10)
I am quite surprised to see a firmware dated of 2007 is loaded (I have tried and run
again install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh very recently, just to be sure I have the right firmware installed).
I couldn't find any other firmware located in /lib/firmware or even /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware.
Cheers,
Julien
