Bug Description
(Hardy Beta upgraded from Gutsy.)
There's a mysterious pause in my boot time. Blacklisting the b43legacy driver knocks about 30 seconds off the time. Attaching bootcharts.
When it's not blackloaded, this is the firmware its loading:

Hi Kevin,
We're currently at Beta Freeze for Hardy so only critical bug fixes are most likely going to make it in before the kernel freezes. I'm going to carry this forward to the Intrepid Ibex release. Thanks.
