kernel.

Title:
  B43 Wireless Autoconnect Failure

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I installed raring to test whether this bug existed in it and quantal too. In the 3.8+ kernels there seems to be an issue with the b43 drivers, my wireless works however it won't automatically connect to my hidden wireless network. I know this didn't exist in 3.7.x because I was using those kernels absolutely fine, it's only when I tried 3.8 on both quantal and raring that the issue arose.
  Note: I can't edit the wireless settings on my network as I am not the administrator in my house.

  WORKAROUND: I have to go into network manager on each login and
  manually select the option to connect, it takes a while but then the
  connection works fine.
