Bug Description

We have a number of reports of jockey not installing the bcmwl driver where it is needed. This is probably the result of us having to specify the modalias manually in the latest versions. I'm opening this bug so we can track these devices and alter the modalias string appropriately.

Bug 1023145 may be relevant here. bcmwl-kernel-source may be the wrong package altogether. In any case, many people are suffering from the wrong driver being installed, and it's causing serious problems.
