The problem seems to be with the postinst of firmware-b43-installer

My device "14e4:4324 (rev 03)" worked out of the box with 10.04 and 10.10.
The postinst of firmware-b43-installer in 12.04 considers it legacy (there is a Fix for "14e4:4320 (rev 03)" only).
But the device does work with the "latest firmware". Executing the contents of the function latest_firmware () (from postinst) as a shell script does the job: it installs the firmware and the device functions.

This device should be detected on a fresh install and the latest firmware should be downloaded and installed.
