Ever since I updated to latest security update I couldn't use the
wireless compat modules from http://wireless.kernel.org/. So, with the
regular modules, If I watch a video from an NFS mount on my network,
I'll loose the wireless connection. I have to disable and then re-enable
wireless to gain a working connection again just to loose it in a minute
or two. Same happens with the linux-backports-modules-compat-
wireless-2.6.36-maverick-generic.
As a workaround I add "radeon.modeset=0" the the kernel I'm loading on
grub. That makes the connection pretty dam stable, so far no wireless
connection lost, event watching that video from the NFS mount.
