Whenst last we left our hero, I had let yum upgrade my kernel on FC6

However, bcm43xx-fwcutter had not been upgraded and would not handle
the new drives. Moving forward, last night I updated to the latest
bcm43xx-fwcutter and extracted the version 4 drivers. My laptop's
wireless now works but not at boot time. I have to run 'modprobe
bcm43xx-mac80211' and 'ifup eth1' to get an actual network
connection.
a wild shot in the dark -- what about adding
alias eth1 bcm43xx-mac80211
to /etc/modprobe.conf?
It's already there.
