Sorry about the long file name. forgot to rename dell's stupid
mile-long package name, and when re-importing in new repo, it got
renamed back to original name.

P.S. It works just fine with 3.5.x, but for 3.6.x, you need to spam broadcom 
for support,
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=134909572204130&w=2

.. especially since they haven't updated their linux drivers page in
over a year, and this (6.x) driver isn't even listed on their site:
http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php

Better yet, spam them to open source their drivers, or at least release specs 
for their PHY's so people can start developing opensource drivers for these 
cards, because broadcom fails to maintain their own linux drivers
