How can I install wireless drivers for a Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g. Ive got the latest version of Netbook Remix running on a mini 1010 and only the ethernet is working, there is only a wireless connection where I am.

I can boot into windows to use the internet etc. I've also got an external HDD to move files from windows to ubuntu. I'm a linux noob, so in English please?
