no carrier/no APs with wi on 5.2

[Gernot Hueber]

Hi,

since my upgrade to 5.2 on my laptop (acer travelmate 634)
I cannot access the wlan?! I had to downgrade to OLDCARD to
get a wi0 at all, but unfortunately I can't get access
to an access point.
The wi card is a built in lucent wavelan.
On 5.1 it worked out of the box.

Can anybody give me a hint.
Thanks

Gernot
