Daniel, are you certain I don't have a broadcom? My external USB wi-fi
device (that I used only to post the bug) is Realtek. The link I posted
from Lenova, says the computer has a broadcom internally.

Also, I have a kernel  that's greater than  3.10, already. I'm using
3.8.0-29-generic.

Title:
  No WiFi - Lenova IdealCentre Q190 Model 57312246

Status in Broadcom Feature Request and Bug Reporting:
  Invalid
Status in Broadcom 802.11 Linux STA driver:
  Invalid
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I just purchased a Lenova IdealCentre Q190 Model 57312246, which comes
  with Windows 8 installed.

  Using Windows 8, the computer's built-in Wi-Fi card works fine, but
  after installing Ubuntu 13.04 (and fully updating), I'm unable to
  detect this wifi card in any manner I've tried.

  The Lenova website simply says that this PC came with at "Broadcom 11b/g/n Wi-Fi wireless":
  http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/desktops/ideacentre/q-series/q190/index.html

  So far, I haven't been able to detect the exact model of the wi-fi
  card; I've tried a few hardware detection commands after installing
  Ubuntu, but none of them seem to be able to detect that the wi-fi
  adapter is even there:

  I've also tried lsusb -v. That one is kind of long, so I'll attach it
  instead of pasting it here.

  By the way, in order to submit this bug report, I had to use a
  external USB wi-fi adapter. I hope this doesn't cause any confusion in
  any of the attached logs; I did try to generate the attachments with
  this adapter unplugged, and then I plugged it in so I could post to
  launchpad.
