I'm trying to install the "wl" driver (sadly, the "brcmsmac" which I like
so much runs very unstable for me) as always, by following the given
instructions:
http://wiki.debian.org/wl#Wheezy
But I cannot get the job done, I mean, the required packages are
installed but the driver is not compiled. Looking at the BTS I've found
this report (patch is available but still not uploaded to the pool):
broadcom-sta-dkms: DKMS doesn't work with 3.4 kernel
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=677193
It says it affects kernel 3.4 -while Wheezy has 3.2- but the behaviour I
get is quite similar, so can anyone confirm the "wl" driver cannot be
compiled right now in Wheezy? There's no hurry, I can wait, is just to
discard a PBKC error..

Are you dealing with broadcom-sta ( http://packages.debian.org/source/wheezy/broadcom-sta ) ?
It works well on my Wheezy box.
