Have you installed the firmware? Please look at the output of the command dmesg | egrep "ssb|b43|wlan0" The other kernel modules that are needed are mac80211 and friends; however, the Kconfig rules should ensure that mac80211 is built before you can actually build b43. BTW, your mailer is misconfigured. the "To:" header field is wrong, which prevents an automatic "reply to".
