Jussi drew my attention to this bug report when I posted about a similar network problem, also with a Pegasus driven adapter, to http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283634 So to the best of my knowledge, I have encountered the same bug that Jussi did. Additional details are at the

When swapping the kernel out, how do you get to see a shell prompt from which to run dpkg in the first place? Is it necessary to build a custom boot disk as described at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization , or am I overlooking an easy answer to this? (Without boot disk

Despite my initially optimistic comment before, I was unable to find a version of Ubuntu that was stable on my Acer AS7740-5691, which uses the HM55 chipset, until I installed 10.4 with kernel 2.6.34-020634rc6, which has been up continuously for the six days since I installed it, so there's reason
