 Headphone and speaker controls didn't appear before my yesterday's update
only there were master and pcm controls but now they appear and external
speakers are working fine now.

Not only that i don't see anything on the screen i see a blank screen wit
several dots through out the screen. Even the text doesn't appear it blindly
shuts down.

yes i did

I used bcm43xx and failed. I did it from some tutorials. I don't exactly
remember that link and that person had the same wireless card as me and he
was successful in getting that stuff working.

When i googled for configuring some people have got it working and they say
it even gets mounted automatically. But i have never tried going into
details and trying to get this card working.
