Wireless not working on Ubuntu 10.10

[Nick Edwards]

Depend on how they build it, usually there is /proc/config.gz, but ubuntu
just being a rebadged debian, will, like debian have that file uncompressed
and renamed in /boot

See  http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43    especially the
firmware bit, I suspect this is your real issue...so if you have not done
so, load firmware, and try insmod the  b43 module

check out  /boot/config-<your-kernel> and look for b43 stuff, its included
as a module in 10.04 so it'll be in 10.10.
