This isn't a Fedora kernel. I'm guessing it is from "Free-dora"
by way of BLAG, and I have no control over it -- sorry.
Cyrille, did you try b43-openfwwf? If that doesn't work, then you
will need to use extracted proprietary firmware with some other kernel
(e.g. stock Fedora) or you will have to live without b43.

Cyrille, did you try b43-openfwwf? If that doesn't work, then you
will need to use extracted proprietary firmware with some other kernel
