Hi,

Yes I confirm. Installed Jaunty a couple of days ago and had to go thru a
set of instructions to do a workaround regarding the PCMCIA Linksys card
that uses that chip; only after that workaround I was able to connect to a
wi-fi network. The last three releases I had to use this set of
instructions:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff .
For Jaunty I had to do the "hard bug fix" because - "If you type in lshw -C
network you might "module=ssb" instead of "module=ndiswrapper" This is
because Hardy has a module loading bug that takes control away from
ndiswrapper."

After that, working great!!! Great work, Ubuntu! And all the products,
people and ideas working around Linux!

Regards,
Marco Antunes.

Unfortunately it seems this bug is still probably an issue. Can you confirm
this issue exists with the most recent Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 release -
http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-9.04-desktop . Please let us know your
results. Thanks.
