Or perhaps Ubuntu could learn from Debian and do releases when the
software is in a good state rather than at specific predetermined
release dates.  Or fix the bugs themselves and contribute them upstream.

Strangely I find with the 2.6.24 kernel currently in Debian, the intel
wireless seemed to work great with WPA2 (at least on a 4965).  Maybe
that was 2.6.24.2 or 2.6.24.3 or something.  It was a couple of weeks
ago now.  I haven't heard of the 4935 before.
