The concerned card is a Linksys WMP-54g
After upgrading from Gutsy to Hardy, I blacklisted the ndiswrapper module and
the bcm43xx one to try the b43 one (I used b43-fwcutter and the correct file to
extract firmware).
After rebooting, the network doesn't work and only does if I unload
ohci-hcd, ssb, b43 and modprobe bcm43xx.
If I unload everything and modprobe b43 :

Now, if I modprobe -r b43 && modprobe bcm43xx :

and I have a working network (and reload ohci-hcd).

Last attempt then : blacklist b43, add bcm43xx in /etc/modules and reboot and
it doesn't work. lshw returns «configuration: driver=b43-pci-bridge latency=32
module=ssb».
It is working if I blacklist b43 in /etc/modprobe.d and (very very
badly) blacklist ssb (renaming ssb.ko). Only trouble then, ohci-hcd
can't load :

I hope this is clear enough :-)
