   Well, we now know that the problem is the wireless drivers in this version
of ubuntu. Extensive testing with several different cards, deep diving into
what happens below the surface by an expert sysadmin isolates the problem
source. So, until the ubuntu folks get this fixed -- and it's an issue with
a number of cards -- we'll drop back to version 6.10.
