I've come to the conclusion that it's an hardware problem. In case of
Sony Vaio there are many reports (like
http://club.vaio.sony.co.uk/clubvaio/gb/en/forum/viewthread?thread=43230offset=0
or http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=282258 ), and the
new kernel didn't change anything.
This bug is walking his way here in Launchpad (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/176911
and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-
manager/+bug/147119 ), but a fix in Prism would be appreciated.

Prism apps think I'm offline and no way to change it
Same issue here. I've updated all packages, deleted the keyring files
and so on, but I can't save any password permanently. Applications (i.e.
cgmail) that store password on the gnome keyring are not functioning at
all. Ubuntu 7.10 clean install.
