Did the apport-collect as requested. Note upstream says when they receive the authenticate from Ubuntu the kernel connects with no problem. As in the dmesg excerpt below, Ubuntu should have issued the authenticate at time 52 but did not. At time 371 I gave up waiting and connected manually to the hidden network, WPA security.
Following the dmesg is a syslog excerpt showing a similar gap between time 40:06 and 44:29 Do note this is a regression, booting Ubuntu 12.04 from another partition has no trouble. Looks like the last thing on dmesg at time 52 is something about Nautilus doing a connect to the USB hard drive. No idea why it does that, I haven't even started the file manager, but I am booted from the USB hard drive.
