Memang, Driver Broadcom sudah masuk di kernel 2.6.17.x. Saya juga dikasih 
pertanyaan waktu configurasi kernel baru. Silahkan dicoba dulu aja pakai 
kernel terbaru dan install paket wireless-tool terbaru yang ada di 
slackware-current.

Untuk konfigurasi device wireless, pakai iwconfig, bukan ifconfig lagi
biasanya setelah memasukkan informasi HotSpot, kita perlu menjalankan dhcp 
client daemon untuk mendapatkan alamat IP address untuk device wireless

satu lagi, untuk konfigurasi firmware, biasanya Anda perlu meletakkannya 
pada /lib/firmware (jika pakai udev yg baru). Kalo pake hotplug, lokasinya 
beda lagi (/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware kalo gak salah)

saya pakai WiFi juga di Slackware, tapi centrino dan berhasil. Pak Yahya 
juga pakai Broadcom dan berhasil juga tuh di Slackware (tapi udah pindah 
kembali kayaknya ke WinSS)
