Bug Description

Wifi Broadcom BCM4311 is not working out of box - it is probably wrong recognized. Solution to this is placed here (and it affects many people on both oneiric and precise) http://nfolamp.wordpress.com/2011/10/15/ubuntu-11-10-getting-wireless-bcm4311-working/ . I am reporting this bug from another machine, because I dont have the affected machine (DELL D420) at home right now.
