Comment 124 for bug 276990

More observations from my Dell XPS M1530: since installing the 2.6.27-8 proposed linux-image, my wireless network is correctly running with no more kernel panics. But I do observe that normally when I turn on my computer and log in, the connection as it appears in NetworkManager quite quickly shows two lights (in the task bar) but then fails to completely connect. It then times out (and a little bubble message says that connection failed), and then a moment later, it retries, and always then successfully connects, on its second attempt.

Perhaps this is relevant to your comments, Soren?
