The bug is easy to reproduce (at least under MacBookPro3,1) : 
 1. boot and log in
 2. connect to wifi (I use WPA2)
 3. suspend
 4. resume
 5. now you are no more able to reconnect to wifi. It renders Ubuntu completely 
useless :-(

I confirmed that installing linux-backports-wireless-modules-karmic does
not fixed the bug at all.

However, installing compat-wireless bleeding edge (as for 2009-11-07)
seems to fix it. It also fix bug 278190, which I marked as duplicate as
this one.

One should get compat-wireless from
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download:

# downloaded 
http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2
 in /tmp
cd /tmp
tar -xf compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2
cd compat-wireless-*
./scripts/driver-select ath9k
make
make install
make unload
modprobe ath9k

Since jaunty, I do not use network manager anymore but wicd instead as
recommended in comment 35 of bug 278190, so I did not try the solution
cited by qos in bug 373680.
