Public bug reported:

I had a pretty stable Natty install, but then I went and upgraded to
11.10. It went downhill from there. Most of my problems I am about to
describe are covered in various threads but none of the solutions have
worked for me.

I have a Asus laptop model no: U56E-BBL5 with 6gb RAM, Intel core i5

1. Wireless/wifi stopped working. Outputs from various commands
suggested in other threads are pasted here

[/CODE]So, wireless is completely not working now and I have to sit near by 
shoe closet on the floor to get a wired connection to post this.

2. Suspend hangs the system.

Whenever I suspend or system goes to suspend due to inactivity, the
system completely freezes. Only a hard reset is possible at this time.

3. System is generally slow and unreliable. Only saving grace has been
Gnome3.2 which looks rather neat.

Any help is greatly appreciated and any one else having same problems
please give a shout. I would feel a little better knowing that I am not
alone having these problems.
