Hi UH, Ron, et-all,

I assure you guys that the b43 issue is on my list to raise with Julien.
I'm just doing some tidying up and have saught advice on the other video
driver issue that is causing problems. Please do bear with me. I have only
recently found the most likely suspects to the root cause of these problems
and I'm not a 'kernel' person! I will be doing a bit more digging and then
go ask about the best way to progress this.

Regards,

Phill.
