Title:
  BCM4331 was quite hard to get working

Status in “b43-fwcutter” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I have 12.04 on a macbook pro 8,2; to run bcm4331 i used all methods
  on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx . Getting
  b43-fwcutter from software center didn't work; so I tried the no
  internet access method and got the *.deb package from a 10.04 cd. This
  didn't work either so after hours on #ubuntu IRC i found another *.deb
  package; which accepted the propreiatery firmware from broadcom. I'm
  not sure if this is a bug, only filing this cause
  https://launchpad.net/~josephjamesmills suggested i should. Hope it
  helps.
