First, this question may not be applicable for support here because I tried kubuntu 13.04 alpha 2 and beta 1 and reverted to 12.04. I wanted to try it because it's on an acer 270 netbook with atom 2600 and cedarview graphics. The latter drivers were built into the kernel (3.7 I think?) and that part definitely worked better.

But the rest had too many problems for be after an update or two. I don't have the recovery skills. I'm conservative about repos and in my windows days I wouldn't generally install beta versions of app software, let alone the OS.

But I definitely want to upgrade to 13.04 when the official release comes out.

Anyway, here's my question. This netbook has a broadcom 4313 wireless device. It did some sort of weird cross connecting on one wireless node I use sometimes. Under 12.04 I had to install the 3.6 backports packages to make it work properly.

So, will there be something similar available for 13.04? Or can someone point me in a direction that will prepare me for what I'll need to do?
