under hardware drivers via system --> administration --> hardware drivers
                   says no proprietary drivers found - and there used to be drivers there....

eth1 is working otherwise I couldn't submit this bug....

but I can no longer work as - work depends on the wireless connection
being functional.

Hope this bug is considered a priority.
