  Network module atl1c 1.0.1.0-NAPI is not available in Lucid.
  
  Acer Aspire D260 netbooks require the atl1c network module. The version
  of the module in Lucid 10.04.0 (1.0.0.1-NAPI) does not support the
  onboard card [1]. There is a newer version (1.0.0.2-NAPI) in linux-
  backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-21-generic which does but results in
  unstable behaviour. I have tested extensively with version 1.0.1.0-NAPI,
  which is available in "linux-next" and I am happy with the behaviour.
