For the information you need and some more...
Ubuntu 7.04
HP dv9000
AMD dual core thing.
This is from the firmware in the Ubuntu dist.
dmsg | grep bcm
[ 9122.176000] bcm43xx: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.

If I rmmod bcm43xx the system will freeze most of the time.
I have another firmware version I have used I can load also.
uname -r
2.6.20-16-generic
I will provide any more information you need and will be more than happy to do any testing needed.
Thanks

At an absolute minimum, we need the output of 'dmesg | grep bcm' after you have modprobed bcm43xx.
No one here can or will help you with ndiswrapper. We have devoted much effort to wiping out the
need for that abomination!!
