I discovered the need to do that by looking at the /proc/pci file to see where the hardware was, and then looked at the driver source.  The driver files I downloaded did not have addresses corresponding to the G40's hardware.  Once I did that, the driver loaded and worked.

I had to rebuild the driver with the correct base address.  I've had to 
rebuild the driver each time I upgraded the kernel.  You will need to 
have kernel headers on your G40 to run the files.  Please email me 
directly so I can send the Broadcom driver files including my patches.
