Hi Ralf
I can confirm this behavior, I've the same card and my machine locks up at boot
time, this is specially delicate since this hardware is installed inside the
laptop, so there's no easy workaround other than open the machine and remove
the wireless card or rename/delete/blacklist the kernel modules so won't load
up at boot time, anyhow this is only feasible by booting an installed old
kernel (<= 2.6.24-3-generic, IIRC) or using a livecd, in my opinion this should
be take in consideration as soon as possible due the closeness to the
distribution release date.
lspci -vvnn -s 02:02.0

Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4301] (rev 02)

Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr-
Stepping- SERR- FastB2B-
Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort-

Latency: 64
Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 18
Region 0: Memory at d0204000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
I think is is enough information to start working on this, if not, just
ask.
Thanks
