What am i missing here?
This might be a silly question, but is there a reason you're not running the restricted driver already in Gutsy? It seems to work perfectly fine on my Broadcom card in an HP dv6324us.
NEVER use a command given to you before asking and knowing exactly what it does. Make sure you know what it is that you're telling your system to do before doing it; some commands can be very harmful to your system or leave you vulnerable to attack.
