Status in “linux” source package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

Bug description:
I had been running the Beta of Intrepid successfully on my Asus EEE 900 until last night. Updates were downloaded (including the latest kernel version) and the WiFi stopped working. I have tried with or without the Atheros Driver - it was working before without the Atheros driver)

I installed the Release Candiate of intrepid (8.10) and the system worked perfectly again. Downloading the updates stopped it working.

Is there a problem with 2.6.27-7-generic?
