I have a Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller. The Broadcom Linux STA drivers were working fine under Quantal.

After upgrading to Raring my machine went straight into kernel panic. On further investigation, I can avoid kernel panic on boot if I first disable wireless\wireless networking. My machine will go into kernel panic if I turn on the wireless with the the 3.8.0-19 kernel under Raring however. If I boot Raring, but use the old 3.5.0 kernel, the machine doesn't go into kernel panic, but wireless doesn't work properly. Keeps dropping the connection, sometimes the connection is very week, occasionally it just works fine for a while. If I uninstall the broadcom drivers via "Software & Updates" then I don't get any kernel panic with either kernel - but I don't have any wireless either...
