Title:
Update to 6.30.x driver needed to avoid kernel panics on some cards
Status in “bcmwl” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The bcmwl driver is causing kernel panics throughout the system
running the 3.8 kernel. The panic can be reproduced in multiple ways,
including:
1. Running "sudo iwconfig" (every time)
2. Resuming from suspend (occasionally)
3. Trying to report a bug from apportcheckresume
Each kernel panic looks exactly like the one I have attached. In every
case, Xorg stops responding (in the resume case, the laptop gets stuck
on a black screen with a command line cursor) and the machine must be
forcibly powered off.
Connecting to networks works perfectly fine, at both 802.11g and n
speeds. If none of the above commands are invoked, the driver operates
the network card without an issue.
My laptop has the BCM4331 wireless card and it's being managed by the
wl driver. When running sudo iwconfig, I was connected to an auto-mode
802.11b/g/n router (I believe I was connected via wireless-N because
the link speed shown was 144 Mbps).
A functional version of the bcmwl driver can be found in this PPA:

bcmwl-kernel-source in the official repositories for Raring needs to
be updated to 6.30.
