Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.15

I'm running kubuntu dapper and recently let the auto-update upgrade my
kernel from 2.6.15-23-386 to 2.6.15-25-386. My acx-111 based wlan
stopped working after this.

The problem was that /lib/firmware/2.6.15-25-386/acx/ was not created. I
copied the 2.6.15-23-386 dir across and tweaked it to use the 1.9.8.b
firmware instead of 2.3.1.31 and am back up and running.

A minor annoyance for a guru, but a headache for the not-so-experienced
user like myself since I didn't really know where to start looking!

** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
         Status: Unconfirmed
