psychok7 - this particular bug is about the ipw* and iwlwifi drivers being able to connect to a network, but suffering from frequent disconnections, with this message appearing regularly in the logs:
wlan0: link is not ready
(wlan0 might be different for you).
I think you have a different bug, if you can't even connect.
Everyone else reading this, i upgraded my other laptop to 2.6.28-16-generic (which is what's most recent in 9.04 atm), and this problem got fixed (this is the laptop with ipw2100). Perhaps the bugfix in the compat-wireless drivers made its way through and is now in the kernel.
AFAIC, this bug should perhaps be closed if we can get a few people to confirm that the newer ubuntu kernel packages fix it.
