I'm not sure if I have the same problem, as my system did not crash immediately after enabling the sta driver. Rather, it appears to work perfectly. However I have been having frequent kernel panics, which I am thinking more and more are relating the the wireless driver, as they seem to happen only when using wireless and most frequently during periods of high Internet access (downloading large files, etc.). As the bcmwl module is the only thing that is in kernel-space and would be affected by higher periods of internet use. Its definitely a ghost of a bug I've been chasing, but it has affected multiple installations of Karmic on this laptop (Dell Latitude D630). I'm going to try compiling the driver myself as it looks like broadcom released a new version on 9/17 which may have not made it into Karmic...
