There are still wireless cards which do not work with Linux out of box?

The firmware is the problem. There are some Broadcom chipsets that need firmware to work, but that firmware is not allowed to be distributed. They might only be found in older laptops now, I've only run into them once or twice. It would be nice if the installer could at least warn about it. The wireless will work, but there are some manual steps required to install the firmware.
