Public bug reported:
Broadcom wireless is a pain to get working.
I got it working, but wow that sucks.
It should just work out of the box.
It seem's Fedora Core 8's kernel doesn't have the driver enabled, and their
kernel seems to resist configuration, and a new kernel failed to boot, so you
are better than them, but that's not saying much..
