[Bug 204826] Bcm43xx driver needs non-oss firmware
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=204826
I haven't tested the scripts that should be available in factory now. But I
extracted firmware with fwcutter manually and my bcm4306 works like a charm
with (K)NetworkManager, wpa-personal and everything.
Life's a lot better than it was using Ndiswrapper.

Coincidentally, a friend came across the same problem on a HP 64-bit
laptop yesterday and finally got it going with fwcutter.
