@nondas:

There are two ways to go about this:

1. Wait it out. There is a fix committed. This means that in due time (when?) the fix is included in an automatic update. First as an proposed update (you might want to enable these System->Administration->Software Sources->Updates enable Pre-released updates) and eventually as a recommended update.

2. Learn about compiling your own kernel and enabling it with grub. It is fun. It is a lot of work. You'll learn a lot from it. But it might not pay off the time invested. If computing is a hobby for you, go ahead. If it is not, don't even try.

In the mean time, you could buy a supported usb wireless device or just use an ethernet connection.

Good luck!
