Oh, [censored#/&$!]... I didn't expect to see any regression for
current hardware, now that live-config + broadcom-sta have this fancy
auto-detection mechanism :(

Best case, the PCI ID of your hardware should be removed from
/usr/share/live/config/broadcom-sta/*.ids.

Worst case, there's also been hardware released with the very same PCI
ID, but that works better with the broadcom-sta (wl) module than with
the brcmsmac one.

Muri, do you want to look into this closer, and possibly report a bug
against the broadcom-sta-$something_that_ships_this_.id_file Debian
package, or should I?

In any case, it would be useful to report the bug you're experiencing
to broadcom-sta's upstream. Do you want to do that?

Cheers,
