A patch somewhere along the line between linux-image-generic
2.6.31.14.27 (the current kernel I am picking up) and linux-image-
generic 2.6.31.15.28 (the kernel in ubuntu-proposed).

Using the "normal" kernel (2.6.31.14.27), /var/log/messages was getting ~10 
lines per second of errors identical to GeorgeVita at  post #7 ( 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/446146/comments/7 )
I upgraded to the proposed kernel and it worked, nothing else (like rmmod, 
modprobe, or the non-repo kernel) was needed.

What works:
-- Internet connection
-- Internal drive (the one with windows drivers, etc.)
-- Micro SD card reader 

I can see installing a proposed update may cause problems later, at least until 
the version (or a newer one) arrives in the "normal" repos/updates, as any 
upgrade to the kernel will downgrade to the update.
However, if it works, it good with at least few people.
(Please comment if there is something dreadfully wrong with installing from the 
proposed section as a band-aid solution)
