Normally, I prefer to do a clean install of a release. This time, I
upgraded from  Karmic to Lucid. Since I could not connect with the Asus
EEE 1000, I downloaded the Ricardo Salvetri's patched kernel with mhy
Macbook then installed it on the Asus from a USB key. I was then able to
connect to the Internet.

Meantime, I burnt the ISO to SD, intending to do a clean install.
(...and *copied* the patched kernel to the root directory of the memory
stick, so I could have everything 'at hand' after the install).

During this time, I removed some packages on the Asus, and may have
broken something, since I am back to the same problem: Network applet
asking for the WPA /WPA2 password over and over. I ever *re-installed*
Ricardo's kernel, to no avail. Warm boots, or cold boots, not
difference...

I confess that I do most of my installation and configuration using the
GUI tools. Writing this on my Macbook, I turned off the Asus for a few
minutes. I just booted it up, and I'm again connected (so maybe the
netbook is just being 'tempermental'!  :-)

I'm about to finish this post, and once again, the dialog is popping up.
... maybe it's also related to ADSL line quality ... though I don't get
the faintest hiccup on my connections with the Airport card on my Mac...
