I seem to be unable to successfully be able to connect to an open
access point, although connecting to a WPA network (through wicd
frontend) works.
I am running the latest squeeze, with kernel 2.6.32-5-686. My machine
is a Dell Mini 10v.
My card is a Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY [14e4:4315] (rev 01).
$ sudo lspci -vvn|grep 4315 -A9

I'm using the b43 driver, installed via the contrib
firmware-b43-lpphy-installer package:
$ lsmod | grep b43
b43 132595 0
mac80211 123574 1 b43
cfg80211 87661 2 b43,mac80211

This is how the wicd README.Debian says /etc/network/interfaces should look:
$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
If I can't figure this out and want to file a bug report, should I
file it against the "linux-image-2.6.32-5-686" package? Thanks for any
clues and advice.
