** Description changed:

  Hi,
  
  New to Ubuntu and Linux and bug reporting, so please bear with me. I'm
  running Ubuntu 8.04 on a Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop. It has a Edimax EW-
  7108PCg wireless card (Ralink chipset).  Anyway, wifi was working ok
  until I did a system update. I did that about 4 days ago, and all the
  updates installed fine, as far as I can tell. The next morning when I
  started up the computer, it showed no wifi connection, and in fact, I
  couldn't select a wireless network; I was unable to enable wireless
  networking. Also, neither of the activity lights on the card light up,
  like they used to.
  
  To test if the card was working, I booted a 8.04 CD and did a live
  session. Wireless worked fine in the live session. The card works.
  Seems like something happened during the update.
  
  As for the "source package I found the bug in", I have no idea.  If I
  can figure it out, I'm attaching files necessary when reporting kernel
  bugs, although I'm not even sure this is a kernel bug issue.  If you
  need more information, please tell me how to get that information for
  you, in addition to what information you need, as I am really new to
  Ubuntu.
  
  
  Thank you,

  P.S. I'm not quite sure how to attach multiple files to this report.
  The facility provided for including an attachment appears to only allow
- a single file to be attached.  I'm intending on attaching the following
- files, but I'm not sure they will all get attached.  Let me know if you
- need more files and how to get them to you.  These are the files I'm
- trying to attach:
+ a single file to be attached.  Let me know if you need more files and
+ how to get them to you.
  
- /media/disk/dmesg.log
- /media/disk/lspci-vvnn.log
- /media/disk/uname-a.log
- /media/disk/version.log
+ Update (7/28/08): looks like if I boot the 2.6.24-20-generic kernel, I
+ don't have wireless networking.  If I boot 2.6.24-19-generic, I have
+ wireless.
