Bug Description

Installed STA via "Addtional Drivers" with of course with the bcmwl-kernel-source being the only package installed from what I can see, intentional or otherwise. Regardless post installation I preformed a restart, logged in, and no wireless. This was the case for Oneric and as I recall possibly 11.04 as well. I am using a bcm4312 on a Dell Latitude D530.
