Public bug reported:

I have an Acer 5820T laptop and am trying to get internet connections
working both Wifi and Ethernet.

I have set up the computer as dual boot Lucid 10.04 and Windows 7.  I
should note that I had to send back the laptop to Acer THREE (3) times
to replace the hard drive. On the 3rd replacement, Acer updated BIOS to
1.18. I have been following the fixes on the various forums.

The only way I could get the ethernet to work was to install the
2.6.35-7 kernel.  So, I now have ethernet working  (Atheros AR8151
AtherosPCI-E)  I tried other fixes suggested but this is the only one
that would work.

Next I tried to update the Broadcom 802.1 Drivers  using
Administration-Hardware Drivers. But I get the error that it is not
compatible with the 2.6.35 Kernel hence the bug report.
