To answer Paolo - the wireless device did show up and appeared to be
usable if I blacklisted bcma on the kernel commandline. Trying to use
'blacklist bcma' in modprobe.d/ did not work.
Steve had suggested that if the b43 driver is unusable, like an
unsupported PHY, that the module should not be
@Brian: by default, the b43 driver won't override the bcma driver

As for ubuntu-drivers, it does things correctly, meaning that it lists
the compatible proprietary driver (broadcom-sta-dkms), without
recommending its installation (over the open driver).

With the broadcom-sta-dkms package installed, can you blacklist bcma,

Looking at the syslog from the installation I noticed that only 'ubuntu-

can help with, if you want to use that.

Additionally, running 'ubuntu-drivers install' (before installing
broadcom-sta-dkms) indicated that all drivers were already installed.
