Wireless stopped working

It's a Lenovo S10e running Jaunty with all updates installed.

It was working yesterday morning.

It's not the access point, all the other boxes are still connecting to the
access point.

It still works with a wired connection.

It uses the proprietary Broadcom STA wireless driver.

The enable wireless box is checked in the NetworkManager applet.

It does not show any available wireless networks.

I browsed through /var/log/messages and did not notice anything interesting.
Just a bunch of lines that look like:

    Jul  3 09:57:23 drew-s10 kernel: [ 1615.541562] eth1: Broadcom BCM4315
802.11 Wireless Controller 5.10.91.9

Some with timestamps before and some after the failure.

I'm stumped!  Don't know what to try next.
