I have continued to use this in Natty with full success.

This week, with the updates that have arrived, a change: the Fn-F2 step
is no longer required.  I wish I could be more specific but
unfortunately I don't know which update might have repaired it - perhaps
it was the new kernel?

I have not yet "reverted" to the STA driver to see if that now works.
