And I very seriously believe that it is the /DEBIAN/control file within the .deb package that is causing the trouble. Line #15 in it seems to be an accidental copy-paste, confusing dpkg (a super long Modalias line). Needs to be fixed (deleted) immediately before plenty of more The update broke my

@adam, If it is not a UEFI based installation, try a BIOS reset (to factory defaults). Or, if it is dual-booting with Windows 8, try a hot-reboot while the wifi is active. If these don't help, I suggest you start a thread at ubuntuforums.org with the description of the problem and the

@Ant, Your model does not use the asus_nb_wmi driver which the bug is about, so your problem is not related to this particular bug, nor is the workaround for you. Blindly applying patches/workarounds not meant for your model would only make the problem worse. If you have a thread on the problem
