Comment 66 for bug 443185

Guys - i did it!!
This crappy STA error was bugging me for 3 days.
As i am so green in this technical thing, first in my life i had to go through a million of treads regarding this missing wireless thing and i had no solution for my case.
1 - i did saw an inactive STA in System/Administration/Hardware drivers but i couldn't activate it
2- i checked Synaptic package manager and there wasn't this bcmwl-kernel-source, but there at least was bcmwl-modaliases
3 - i reinstalled the last one bcmwl-modaliases
4 - rebooted computer
5 - in Hardware drivers appeared B43 as already active, but wireless wasn't working anyways
6 - though i removed B43
7 - rebooted again
8 - tried to activate STA and got message "/var/log/jockey.log"
9 - tried again and got message "Sorry, the Jockey backend crashed"
how da heck could i know, that i have to go to Synaptic manager / Settings / Repositories / and mark a tickbox in Ubuntu softwear "Proprietary drivers for devices (restricted) !!!??? This small step solved all my problems
10 - bcmwl-kernel-source appeared in synaptic
11 - i acivated all of it, rebooted
12....and vuala!! Wireless was there!!
