Bug Description
Binary package hint: restricted-
I have Broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01) wifi card on my HP Pavillon DV5. It doesn't work out of the box in Ubuntu but there is a restricted driver availible which is called "Broadcom STA WiFi driver".
When I activate it, the dot next to that name doesn't switch to green as it is supposed to do. Nevertheless, the wifi card works fine - untill I reboot. Than, I have to reactivate it.
How can I make the driver activation persistent?
