Wireless card

03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4331 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 02)

Thought I have followed the directions of the kernel document,but it still can't find the wireless card,after the google search ,it must enable the following options for the kernel

Device Drivers->Broadcom specific AMBA->
                   < *> BCMA Support
                    [*] Support for BCMA on PCI-host bus

And you can find the firmware in the

 ls /lib/firmware/b43/
