That's really a question, right?
Well. linux-2.4 doesn't work with the linux-2.6 modutils.
Windows Vista doesn't work with Windows 98 device drivers.
That leads to this assumption:
b43 doesn't work with version 3 firmware but needs version 4.
Newer drivers supporting newer hardware need newer firmware.
