All of my previous testing was done on the 2.6.27-7 kernel...and so, following your lead, I updated to the 2.6.27-9 kernel and the 2.6.27-11 kernel after that. After all updates (including installing the linux-backports-modules for each kernel version), the problem is still unresolved.

More alarmingly, my wireless fails to work *at all* in kernel version 2.6.27-11. A dmesg does seem to throw some errors, though, that may be helpful. Hopefully we are nearing a solution...because this is getting increasingly frustrating on my end, as I absolutely need wireless of some kind at my university - especially in my computer science classes.

I have attached dmesg and lspci -vvnn logs for each kernel version tested today after the bug was triggered or the device failed to load. These logs are denoted by a -9 or a -11 after the name in the file.

Thank you so much for the help so far, Leann! Can you possibly think of any other tests or anything that I can do to help out? I'm willing to do just about anything!
