Yes, and success! I have an Acer also but it uses the b43 driver. Since the gui tools locked up I went back to drakconnect and tried to configure the wireless interface. It required firmware files but I installed them using my key drive the same way I installed the kernel firmware package. After I successfully installed the firmware the system boots normally and both NICs work.<br>
<br>
Is this a known bug? If not, what package should I file a bug report against?<br>

If you google "linux freeze atl1c" you'll get a bunch of hits, but it's not really clear which driver is causing the problem. Probably atl1c, since not all of those affected are using Broadcom wireless.<br>

lsmod | grep atl didn't get any hits and lsmod | grep b43 gives this:<br>
<br>
b43 392212 0<br>
rng_core 13292 1 b43<br>
bcma 35012 1 b43<br>
mac80211 440190 1 b43<br>
cfg80211 199805 2 mac80211,b43<br>
ssb 62651 1 b43<br>
pcmcia 61681 2 ssb,b43<br>
mmc_core 114404 4 sdhci,sdhci_pci,ssb,b43<br>
<br>
Unless it uses a different name I don't think my laptop uses the atl1c driver. I don't think it's a bug in the b43 firmware since that works fine once it's installed. I would guess it's a hardware probe of some sort that locks up when it encounters the wireless NIC without firmware.<br>
