Hi,

I have been using broadcom-sta for my BCM4328, but now it has been
removed from Sid.  I have tried the 2.6.31-trunk-amd64 kernel (with and
without b43-fwcutter).  The kernel reports:

but there is no interface.  So, either I am doing something wrong or
2.6.31 doesn't support the 4328 yet and broadcom-sta is still needed.
I have run 2.6.31-rc5 for a while and there was a patch to compile
broadcom-sta for that kernel, are you sure it doesn't work for 2.6.31?
(Note that I'd trade broadcom-sta for b43 at the moment it's possible!)

Kind regards,
Paul
