[DC LoCo] Kernel Update Broke Networking

I did the update today which installed an update to generic kernel 2.6.38.11.26.
Immediately afterward networking started functioning strangely.
Wi-Fi isn't working at all. I can still select it to as an option, but
the menu options for selecting a wireless network are grayed out.
Ethernet does not immediately work, but takes more than 3-5 minutes to
finally activate after reaching the desktop.

I'd like to file a bug report also, but don't know where to go for that.

Is there a way to roll back to the previous kernel?
