Does anyone know anything about this package?

kernel-module-wl-2.6.16.54-0.2.5-default

I believe this is on the SLED 10 SP2 DVD. Yast describes is as "Broadcom
802.11 Wireless Network Driver"

It is also shown as "not available for installation".

I downloaded SP2 and updated from SP1 to SP2 for SLED 10 and it wiped
out the wireless driver. (I installed ndiswrapper and have the wireless
working although I cannot connect using wpa_supplicant.)
