<div><br>Addendum: I just reread the first post and I guess I should point out that I never even booted into Vista, just wiped it. 100% Linux machine here. :) <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>The Asus eeePC of my girlfriend is having similar problems:<br>
Sometimes wifi shuts itself off, but there is no Windows Dual Boot<br>
install just plain ubuntu. I think that the BIOS is buggy, because it<br>
was simply disabled in the bios, just had to switch it back on (in the<br>
BIOS).<br>
As long as it doesn't happen often it is not a major problem (No my<br>
girfriend knows how to access bios settings)<br>
<br>
Maybe your problem is similar?<br>
<br>
-> When blaming the brand it would be a good idea to rule out other<br>
inflences (as Windows Vista in your case).<br>
