There is no native support in kernel
Linux debian 3.7.9-lina #1 SMP Tue Feb 19 00:18:06 SGT 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux
back then. So I followed the advice, install the following,
b43-fwcutter-015
compat-wireless-2012-05-09
broadcom-wl-5.100.138
under /etc/modules
# more modules
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.
# Parameters can be specified after the module name.
firewire-sbp2
loop
## add coretemp
coretemp
Basically I only need wireless very very occasionally. That's why I
don't update the kernel, cause I also need fix the fglrx-driver issue.
