I investigated this more closely, and I'm afraid there is no easy way to
have the b43 driver appear in jockey when STA is enabled.
Technical background: the STA driver blacklists tbe ssb module (it has
to, in order to work at all), and the b43 module has modaliases in terms
of "ssb:". Since there are no ssb: devices at all, the b43 module does
not match on the current system. Even when loading ssb manually (or
adding a manual modalias file for it) doesn't help, since wl blocks the
detection of any ssb devices.
So the official answer for this is: Disable STA first, then enable b43.
Sorry :-/
