I've been tracking this bug for a while hoping for a fix. Yesterday, I
was looking at bug reports in OpenChrome and noticed this:

  http://www.openchrome.org/trac/ticket/288

Near the end is a mention of a patch

http://www.openchrome.org/trac/attachment/ticket/288/openchrome_741_hp_2133.patch

I applied this to the SVN openchrome code (revision 747), compiled and
installed it and voila, I haven't had an issue with wireless disconnects
using either the b43 driver or the STA driver. I was able to watch
videos in vlc without seeing any wireless disconnects.

I'm currently running a fully up-to-date Jaunty on the XSVGA (1024x600)
model.
