Any suggestions?

Check dmesg. There must be more info there (especially when b43 is
loaded).

Yes, indeed, dmesg:

b43-phy0 ERROR: Firmware file "b43/ucode5.fw" not found or load failed.
b43-phy0 ERROR: You must go to http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/
Drivers/b43#devicefirmware and download the correct firmware
(version 4).
input: b43-phy0 as /class/input/input13

Thanks again,
Mike.
