I've finally got my new laptop and I've managed to get F20 installed on it.

I've got a number of problems to work on yet - web cam and touch pad buttons -
but my main problem is the WIFI.

On the DELL I used broadcom-wl and kmod-wl and had to update it every time I
upgraded the kernel, but it worked,

Now I've got a newer Broadcom chipset on the replacement laptop and so far all
I can Google is people who've failed to get it working.

Can anyone point me to a post where it's worked. Below is the lspdi output.

Hi,

seems this device is not supported - http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43?highlight=%2843b1%29 People write about NDIS wrapper however - http://www.snip2code.com/Snippet/84879/Linux-Ubuntu-Drivers-for-Broadcom-Chipse
