I haven't tested the scripts that should be available in factory now. But I extracted firmware with fwcutter manually and my bcm4306 works like a charm with (K)NetworkManager, wpa-personal and everything.
Life's a lot better than it was using Ndiswrapper.

Coincidentally, a friend came across the same problem on a HP 64-bit laptop yesterday and finally got it going with fwcutter. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
