Problem is'nt ethernet/wireless controller drivers. Problem comes from 2.6.31 (in 2.6.30 it worked) kernel & memory allocation when ACPI is enabled.

I tried changing laptop's wireless card for an atheros, and problem was still there.

You can either:

- Boot kernel with ACPI disabled, as stated ad bugzilla.kernel.org. (haven't tried)
- Patch and build a new kernel, even if it is 64bit.
- Wait till the patch is included in a karmic kernel update.
- Use a USB wireless dongle. I did to get linux source, and kernel tools to build a new one.

Cheers
