Eu instalei o Ubuntu pela primeira vez e ficou ótimo. Eu tenho a Internet com fio para trabalhar usando instruções de outros tópicos, mas não consigo fazer o wireless funcionar.
Por favor, veja a saída da tela do terminal abaixo. Sua ajuda é muito apreciada

Como o Ubuntu está carregando o driver b43, existe apenas uma possibilidade para o seu cartão
Você precisa do firmware da placa, sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer e reinicializar
Se não funcionar, verifique rfkill list all para quaisquer blocos duros ou macios, se nenhum for encontrado
Eu duvido que seu computador use o bcmwl-kernel-source, já que instalá-lo irá colocar sua lista negra em seu driver ethernet - b44
