[Bug 1030489] [NEW] Additional Drivers says Wifi is not in use when using open driver

[Aurélien Leblond]

Public bug reported:

Hello,

I have an internal wifi card BCM43224 and I am using the open-source
driver brcmsmac.

In Ubuntu Quantal, Additional Drivers says that "The Device is not
working" instead of offering the brcmsmac driver.

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu quantal (development branch)
Release:	12.10

$ apt-cache policy software-properties-common 
software-properties-common:
  Installed: 0.91
  Candidate: 0.91
  Version table:
 *** 0.91 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Regards,
Aurélien
