Hi,
I've just bought a Dell Vostro 1310 laptop which appears to include a
BCM4315 chipset:

$ lspci|grep Broad
06:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev
01)

$ lspci -n|grep 43
06:00.0 0280: 14e4:4315 (rev 01)

$ uname -a
Linux tachion 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 19:24:39 UTC 2009 i686
GNU/Linux


Obviously even their device strings Broadcom can mess up.

Anyway, currently I'm having many kernel panics (which don't generate
logs) and I suspect the culprit is the wl driver that I have to use
(supplied by Ubuntu 8.10) in order to get the card running.

The b43 driver doesn't appear to support my card, but I have no idea on
how to code drivers. Can I be of any help for someone who knows?

Ronan
