Whenever you have the distupgrade ready, the b43-fwcutter package is installed
(at least it was on my Acer 3023WLMi)
It is enough to just run it as I stated above. (by means it worked for
me OK)
The problem is only I don't know exactl
I do not understand your complain - what exactly do you think the hardy-

The script that is (or at least: should be) called at post-install stage

I don't know what went wrong when I did the dist-upgrade from Gutsy (7.10) -
the fact was, the b43 driver complained about wrong firmware installed.
To be specific, after the dist-upgrade I ran into another problem (with
something overwriting my hosts file (or so) and sudo could no

I know the dangers of using 'beta' software ;) don't worry, I wish to help to
improve, that's it :) If I didn't want it, I wouldn't be going to Hardy beta :)

I am having similar problems, though mine is a bit strange. I have
followed the instructions above and manually installed the b43-fwcutter
package. I have then downloaded the wl_apsta.o firmware and issued the

acer_acpi is enabled by default in hardy and also in the new

Yes, this works too (ran this and didn't break my wireless, so it is working)
one remark : I used this with sudo.

I can confirm on installing Hardy Beta from CD, running all updates,
then using Hardware Drivers to enable b43, the wireless is recognized
but no access points are found. Running manually:
sudo /usr/share/b43-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh
fixes the problem.

I just upgraded from 7.10. The driver's not listed in Hardware Drivers
-- in 7.10 it (and my modem) were there, now there's nothing. the

After upgrading I was getting an error from b43legacy-phy0 in

This bug is fixed on the release as the b43-fwcutter package in Ubuntu
8.04 (1:011-1) uses the correct binary tarball (4.80.53.0). However, the
update will not fix the problem for people who have upgraded from betas;
they must run install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh manually after updating.
