With 2.6.24-rc5, a b43 user reports a problem at bootup. The b43

If the user issues the commands
rmmod ssb; modprobe b43
then the modules are loaded correctly and the wireless device works.
What could be causing such a problem?

Larry, thanks for pursuing this. I upgraded to 2.6.24-rc6 last night and
I don't see this issue anymore. One might think that the clean remake
solved the problem (which I am pretty sure I did with rc5 as well); but
still does not explain with 2.6.24-rc5, the module would not load on
first attempt but then load after the manual:
# rmmod ssb;modprobe b43
Best regards,
Shourya
