Just found this via google to enable wlan:

1. the nvram file under /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/ has a wrong MAC address.
I changed it to the correct one. However, I am not sure if this is really
necassary.

2. Found the following on the web:

>rmmod brcmfmac
>rmmod brcmutil
>echo on > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/sdhci-acpi/INT33BB\:00/power/control
>modprobe brcmfmac

After this, I can connect to wlan!

Does this give you enough information to find out, what the problem is? Or
do you still need DBG output from the driver? if so, just tell me and I will
try to compile and install the kernel with DBG turnded on. Its not a big
deal but I stopped working on it as I found this workaround.

At the momment I am trying to put these commands to rc,local. With limited
success until now, But this may be caused by the fact, that they are
executed too early. Will add some sleep.

Another thing I found out is, that the system sometimes comes up without
wlan0. It seems I have it only on every second boot. However, this could be
just by incident and it is not exactly every second boot but about 50 % of
all boots.
