I tested this today with "Ubuntu Legacy 23.10 "Mantic Minotaur" - Daily amd64 (20230927)" and discovered the b43 driver still does not work with my wireless adapter as I saw the following in dmesg:

 $ sudo dmesg | grep b43
[sudo] password for bdmurray:
[ 18.921934] b43-phy0: Broadcom 4352 WLAN found (core revision 42)
[ 18.922272] b43-phy0 ERROR: FOUND UNSUPPORTED PHY (Analog 12, Type 11 (AC), Revision 1)
[ 18.922277] b43: probe of bcma0:1 failed with error -95

However, using software-properties-gtk to install the proprietary driver (broadcom-sta-dkms) worked and the b43 driver was blacklisted and I was able to connect to a wireless network.
