Hi, I'm seeing the same problem in 8.04.

As per Leann's suggestion, above, I upgraded to 8.10 Alpha5. The problem
is still present for me.

After reboot, I noticed a line in dmesg warning about old drivers, so I
went to linuxwireless.org and manually installed the drivers. After
further reboot, here are relevant bits of dmesg:

[    4.355128] b43-pci-bridge 0000:00:0c.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LNK2] -> GSI 10

FYI this machine (laptop) is dual-boot with the Other operating system,
which works, so I know the AP is configured correctly.

'uname -a' gives:
Linux limpet 2.6.27-2-generic #1 SMP Thu Aug 28 17:20:02 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

At this point I'm not quite sure how to proceed. I'm pretty comfortable
with kernel hacking, and willing to try any
suggestions/patches/whatever, however I'm new to Ubuntu (and to the
bcm4306!) so will need my hand holding.

best regards,
stephen
