(but then there seem to be a couple of other people it works for, so who knows :(.

I have the same sort of problem with this laptop on Ubuntu 13.04 and Lubuntu 12.10 (i386). nohwcrypt=1 doesn't seem to help. So I'm probably going to buy a better supported wireless card, like the Intel one mentioned in the forum thread.
