The packages mentioned above are available from Packman
http://packman.links2linux.de/package/b43legacy-firmware
http://packman.links2linux.de/package/b43-firmware
but only for openSUSE 11.0.
Could you please activate them for 11.1 and the upcoming 11.2?
For users without internet access, downloading and installing the RPMs has
always been the easier way (in that case it does not make any difference,
that the packages are "officialy" only for 11.0) and although users with
internet access could also run
"su -c /usr/sbin/install_bcm43xx_firmware"
or
"sudo /usr/bin/install_bcm43xx_firmware"
(as long as b43-fwcutter is installed), for some "newbies" it might be easier
to just install them via YaST, especially as any good tutorial dealing with
online repositories mentions Packman as a "must have" for openSUSE.
