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
02:03.0 0280: 14e4:4318 (rev 02)
	Subsystem: 1028:0005
	Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- DisINTx-
	Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx-
	Latency: 64
	Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 17
	Region 0: Memory at dfbfe000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
	Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge
	Kernel modules: ssb

Head of dmesg | grep b43 gives:
[    2.407936] b43-pci-bridge 0000:02:03.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17

[   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
