[Bug 545709] Re: bcmwl-kernel-source 5.10.91 and BCM4312 wireless

I tried compiling the driver from the Broadcom website.
http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php

But when I download the necesary libraries and run the makefile it
creates the files and then deletes them immediately.  Perhaps this link
will be helpfull for someone else.

I installed Ubuntu 9.10 i386 and the issue was resolved by installing the bcmwl-kernel-source package with the Synaptic Package Manager.  This was on the same system that showed the above issue with Ubuntu 9.10 amd64 installed.  The issue appears in the amd64 version but has not been an issue in i386 version even after using the system for several weeks.

Note:
I am currently running Ubuntu 9.10 i386 and am happy with it.  I will try to run the additional testing when I get a chance to install the amd 64 version again.
