Title:
  no wifi with kernel 3.15.0-1.3 when using bcm 4309

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  no wifi with kernel 3.15.0-1.3 when using bcm 4309:

  this is when using kernel 3.15.0-1.3 in lubuntu-14.04 trusty and bcm 4309 (driver b43).
  This problem does not occur when using kernel 3.15.0-1.3 with bcm 4312 (driver bcm-kernelsource) (neither for lubuntu 14.04 nor 14.10). 

  This problem does also not occur when using instead kernel 3.14 in
  lubuntu-14.04 or 14.10 (i.e. wifi works with bcm 4309 and 4312).

  I suppose it is not a problem with the kernel 3.15, but the driver b43
  may need some adaption.
