I can confirm this bug - I have the same problem on a new Dell Latitude 6400
Notebook with an Intel 5100 WLAN adapter.
Several other people appear to have this problem as well (see threads:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1307396 or
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305616 or
http://swiss.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305190 (the proposed solution
turning ACPI off, didn't work for me))
I have been running the Karmic beta version on this netbook.
Interestingly, WLAN didn't work in the beginning, after some updates it
did - for a few days - and then it ceased to work maybe 2-3 days prior
to the release candidate (I thought about posting a bug report - I
really should have in retrospect... sorry)
The relevant section of "lshw -c network" looks pretty similar
