I did a fresh install of a Lucid .iso on a HP Compaq 610 today.
This computer contains a Realtek 8171se WiFi chip. WiFi didn't work first.
The installation .iso still contained kernel image 2.6.32-21
Downloading the file http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic_2.6.32-22.33_i386.deb
manually on another computer with Internet Access and copying this single file using an USB-flash memory stick made it possible to upgrade the kernel on the new machine and after the reboot WiFi worked fine. I would like to thank everybody for their nice work!
