Bug description:
  After a fresh Maverick RC install, Jockeygtk (System > Administration
  > Additional Drivers) proposes to install either b43 or STA drivers
  for the BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY [14e4:4315] (rev 01) wireless adapter
  in a Dell Inspiron 910 (Mini 9), BIOS is A00.

  The attached error message appears, repeated attempts to enable the
  driver then fail.

  Attempting to install from commnand line shows the actual problem:

  magicfab@910:~$ sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
  [sudo] password for magicfab:

   subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   firmware-b43-installer

  As a workaround you can:
  sudo apt-get remove --purge firmware-b43-installer

  and then use the STA driver instead.
