[Bug 655111] Re: BCM4312 not supported by "Additional drivers". B43 is proposed, fails w/o useful message, "Not supported low-power chip"

[Martin Pitt]

Michael,

I just thought about this again, and while disabling the b43 driver
would have made sense in maverick, doing so in an SRU isn't really the
best thing IMHO. People will see this right after installation (where
updates aren't installed yet?) or even on the live CD. Also, when
installing with network, ubiquity can now install the wl driver
automatically, without confusion.

So for an SRU it might be better to just filter out the broken product
IDs from b43 instead?
