Bug Description

I was trying to install drivers for Ideapad s10-3s, I've come across this package
and tried installing it after removing all other drivers I've tried before. Thsis also causes my system
to hang for a while before I get to reporting the bug, Is there any way to beat aroung this issue with installing drivers for
BCM4313
