Well, there is a open source project that may help you:

You may try and see if it works for you.

broadcom is a great brand to avoid. Last Great Step Forward I head from the broadcom reverse-engineers that they had fully documented the interfaces and were ready to begin the Next Great Step. I got the impression usable code was some way off.

ndiswrapper is the most likely option, from my reading but it does limit what you can do with the card.
