On a fresh karmic on a dell mini:

FATAL: Error inserting wl
(/lib/modules/2.6.31-14-generic/updates/dkms/wl.ko): Unknown symbol in
module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

and in the dmesg:
[   51.603074] wl: disagrees about version of symbol lib80211_get_crypto_ops
[   51.603083] wl: Unknown symbol lib80211_get_crypto_ops

dpkg -S lib80211.ko :
linux-image-2.6.31-14-generic: 
/lib/modules/2.6.31-14-generic/kernel/net/wireless/lib80211.ko
linux-backports-modules-2.6.31-14-generic: 
/lib/modules/2.6.31-14-generic/updates/cw/lib80211.ko

Removing linux-backports-modules-2.6.31-14-generic does not help (same
error message).

BTW, with a "Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g
(rev 01)" which driver are we suppose to use?? b43? wl? In jaunty, I use
to use wl and it was fine.
