| And just to confirm, what are the exact symptoms that you have with
| "broken" kernels?  Just that connections can't be made, the card can't
| find access points, etc? or?

 In the GUI, no wireless networks show up/are listed in the usual
dropdown menu; this means that I can't go as far as even trying to
connect to anything.  From the command line, 'iwlist wifi0 scanning'
lists nothing.
