Ok, I believe I found the cause of this problem. It seems that Kernel
2.4.24 and lower do not have supporting drivers for the Broadcom 4311
and 4312 (rev 02) chipset.

After compiling and installing Kernel 2.4.25, my broadcom 4312 (rev 02) worked 
fine using the new drivers.  Would it be possible to either:
1) Backport the new b43 driver subsystem from 2.4.25, which supports the newer 
rev 02 chipset
-or-
2) Get a 2.4.25 kernel (possibly in Universe) for Hardy

This will affect a majority of new HP Laptop users that are running AMD
processors.

** Summary changed:

- b43 not working on Hardy
+ b43 not working on rev 02 Broadcom Chipsets
