Sorry Mohamed - ignore my previous response - it was from my desktop machine (the one on which I'm writing these emails) and NOT the laptop! The responses from the laptop are below: [yates@localhost ~]$ lsmod | egrep "b43|wl" b43 128888 0 rfkill 11284 3 rfkill_input,b43 mac80211 214264 1 b43 cfg80211 62472 2 b43,mac80211 input_polldev 4128
