It does not use this firmware files, and do not match all the hardware b43 matches (I happen to have also one card that uses it, thanks to dkms-broadcom-wl ) Or you talk about b43 hardware for which openfwwf firmware will not work? According to this pages all working b43 hardware accepts this firmware, except some PCMCIA which were worked on. http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#Supported_devices http://www.ing.unibs.it/~openfwwf/ I don't know if we can do better : 1- try open source firmware 2- ask for windows driver if 1 did not work?
