** Summary changed:

- user experience nightmare for installation of Ubuntu on machines requiring 
b43 and b43-legacy wireless driver
+ Jockey user experience nightmare for installation of Ubuntu on machines 
requiring b43 and b43-legacy wireless driver

** Description changed:

- The user experience is awful currently (10.04) when Ubuntu is installed
- on a machine with a wi-fi interface that requires either the b43 or
- b43-legacy driver.  Jockey should automatically find, provide, correctly
- install and activate the proprietary b43 or b43-legacy wireless drivers.
- Instead not only does it fail in various ways, no troubleshooting
- information is provided to the user about how to apply workarounds for
- the Jockey bug(s), such as the need to connect to the Internet some
- other way and run the script to work b43-fwcutter package or ndiswrapper
- or bmcwl sources.
