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.
