I do not understand your complain - what exactly do you think the hardy- package is doing wrong? The script that is (or at least: should be) called at post-install stage is /usr/share/b43-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh If you look at the code, the mentioned script is downloading (and extrac

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 command to install the firmware (fwiw, I used /lib/firmware, not /lib/firmware/uname -r
