Did you have pre-release repositories enabled in Jaunty before dist- upgrading? I had this same issue when I tried to do a dist-upgrade. I then decided (since my linux install was minimal), to do a full CD install of karmic. My wifi worked absolutely fine, until I enabled pre- release to get KDE 4.3beta to play with. After reboot, my wifi failed to connect.. it would continually try.. but would fail to hold a connection. After checking "dmesg" I found my logs littered with these:
