[Bug 545728] [NEW] [STAGING] TOSHIBA T110, wlan card still doesn't drive properly on Lucid

[Viaxl]

Public bug reported:

ppl trying to install Ubuntu on Toshiba T100 series would face a "Kernel panic"
(mine is T110)

this is temporarily solved using ndiswrapper as described here
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1316079

I report this again because I installed the new Lucid and the problem
still exists

here's some details:

1. I need to disable wlan card in bios before installing ubuntu or the
progress bar would froze forever

2. after installing I need to blacklist rtl8187se (wlan card module of
the machine), so I could login to the system with wlan enabled and using
ndiswrapper to make it work

3. ***** AFTER ndiswrapper make the wlan work. I could do
rmmod ndiswrapper
modprobe rtl8187se
to make it work with native driver, this is weird..

hope you smart guys can fix this in the final version. I can't rely on
ndiswrapper forever =)

PS people with a toshiba T135 seems have got a new version of driver by which their wlan can work fine (rtl8192se)
but T110 doesn't..
