dell vostro 1520 : getting wireless up on karmic 9.10 ubuntu

I was struggling with the wireless on my dell vostro 1520 (64bit, ubuntu 9.10) till I came across the post by frost at http://www.aeonity.com/frost/getting-dell-wifi-work-ubuntu-910-karmic-koala

thx to him, I have my bcm wireless working on my laptop

sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter
reboot
[this is required as my system had bcm4312]
system->hardware drivers -> broadcom sta wireless driver -> activate
reboot
