According to dpkg log it was (most recent come first):
3.2.17-1
3.2.16-1
3.2.15-1
3.2.14-1
3.2.12-1
3.2.9-1 <-- this bug report ("...possible regression?") starts here
3.2.6-1
3.2.4-1
All of those failed to run brcmamsc in a stable state. The last time I
checked and still was failing it was with kernel 3.2.17-1 (by that
time I had to start using "wl" driver instead).
OTOH, I will try to reproduce the instability state with 3.2.16-1 over
the weekend and will comment the results here.
