Running an HP Pavilion dv5 with 64-bit OpenSolaris 2008.11.  The Broadcom 
BCM4312 chipset reports PCI info of 14e4:4315, as shown in the output of 
scanpci -v below:

The current OpenSolaris ndiswrapper wireless page doesn't list any info 
specific to this particular wireless chipset yet.   Is there a known 64-bit 
Windows XP driver version that can be used to activate this via ndiswrapper?  
The suggested driver doesn't recognize this chipset, and all versions of the 
driver I could find panic'ed the OS until I removed them.

As a side note, it was somewhat difficult to configure this chipset under 
Fedora 10 x64 as well - had to fall back to the wl kernel module - the standard 
b43 driver didn't support BCM4312.
