Do you actually need broadcom-sta anymore? With the recent kernel

Yes, I initially tried the b43 driver, which worked, but consistently dropped about 5-15% of packets, making it mostly unusable. I also tried bcrmsmac and bcrmfmac, and neither of them supported my card (432b). Unfortunately, I can't get a different card, either, because I my notebook has a "whitelist" of supported devices in the BIOS, and it won't even boot with a mini-pci-e card installed that isn't in that list. Thanks, HP :(
