airport stops working on debian side of computer

[Cheryl Homiak <chomiak@charter.net>]

I am running a ppc mac mini with the broadcom chip (bcm4306); am running
debian unstable with kernel 2.6.26-1; have just updated with apt-get
hoping this would ix the problem but it didn't. My wireless suddenly
stopped working--using airport extreme--but still works fine on the mac
side of the computer. /var/log/messages shows all the broadcom components
being loaded but shows link not ready when brought up. cat /proc/net/dev
shows wlan0_rename (also a eth1) but all zeros. The relevant part of lspci
-knn shows:

0001:10:12.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4320] (rev 03)
	Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge
	Kernel modules: ssb

I did make the firmware changes as instructed with the 2.6.25 kernel
and this problem didn't occur when I changed to 2.6.26.
Has anybody had
this happen and are there other tests I should run or other
logs in which I need to look to find out wt is wrong?

tia.
