First get rid of the networkmanager crap. Then we can talk about anything. And I actually did look at the kernel changelog, nothing b43 related. > > Moep. Wrong.

Then you did something wrong. b43-fwcutter does get the firmware. > But put in wrong place. > Kernel try load firmware from b43 directory and not from b43legacy. As I already said: It gets BOTH. b43 and b43legacy firmware.

That's not relevant here. This is about fwcutter, nothing else. The actual driver is not here and for driver issues ask the kernel guys. Grüße/Regards, René -- .''`.
