I guess it's latest, than 3.2-rc6 ? I don't know how to remove the b43 since the trial of make uninstall in pathTo/b43-fwcutter-015 not work. so I just did something like make install again, and then 1 export FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR="/lib/firmware" 2 wget http://www.lwfinger.com/b43-firmware/broadcom-wl-5.100.138.tar.bz2 3 tar xjf broadcom-wl-5.100.138.tar.bz2 4 sudo b43-fwcutter -w "$FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR" broadcom-wl-5.100.138/linux/wl_apsta.o dmesg showed me: [ 127.434017] cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain [ 127.704793] b43-phy0: Broadcom 4331 WLAN found (core revision 29) [ 127.704821] bcma: Switched to core: 0x812 [ 127.705237] b43-phy0 ERROR: FOUND UNSUPPORTED PHY (Analog 9, Type 7, Revision 1) [ 127.705244] b43: probe of bcma0:0 failed with error -95 [ 127.705260] Broadcom 43xx driver loaded [ Features: PMNLS ] [ 431.367724] applesmc: FS! : read arg fail Thanks for any advice
