Um, do you mean that when installing squeeze on your hardware:

 1. The b43 driver does not work out of the box
 2. Running "sudo update-initramfs -u" is enough to get it working
 3. An alternative way to get it working is to install the b43 driver
    from compat-drivers

?

In any case, please attach output from
"reportbug --template linux-image-$(uname -r)".  It is useful context.

Puzzled,
Jonathan
