it seems weird that there is only one line about the b43 module...

The driver is definitely not picking up the card. Here's what it should look like:

[ 2620.611136] b43-phy2: Broadcom 4318 WLAN found (core revision 9)
[ 2620.626037] b43-phy2 debug: Found PHY: Analog 3, Type 2, Revision 7
[ 2620.626062] b43-phy2 debug: Found Radio: Manuf 0x17F, Version 0x2050, Revision 8
[ 2620.636899] phy2: Selected rate control algorithm 'minstrel'
[ 2620.637796] Broadcom 43xx driver loaded [ Features: PLR, Firmware-ID: FW13 ]

It is well documented that b43 + bcm43xx at the same box create
conflicts. It looks as if you have both installed, do you?

I do not. 'Broadcom 43xx' does not refer to bcm43xx, and b43 is
working fine. [I'm not the OP, who's experiencing problems.]
