Description:

Broadcom 4312 does wifi with kernel 2.6.29.x. I have not tested bluetooth. It throws spurious errors when you set things with iwconfig. Ignore them. Don't be glad you have this.
Limitations are that not all features are there. I have the beast on usb, whioch b43 doesn't officially support. If you have this on your usb, you need:
1. B43_PCI_BRIGDE=m or y . This is an INVISIBLE option in the Sonics Silicon Backplane. Grep the kernel .config for it. You can find it in the help.
2. I have a little file 'wlan0' in /etc/modprobe.d for this.
install b43 /sbin/modprobe -i ssb; /sbin/modprobe -i b43; /sbin/modprobe -i btusb
3. You also need 2.6.27 or later.

/sbin/lspci output:

lsusb:

when wlan0 doesn't exist, there is _no_output_ on lspci. When it does, I get
