This PS3 kernel are you referring to an upstream kernel version or a debian package? currently the only version available in lenny/sid is 2.6.26, so i don't have the option of using a different kernel aiui. could you send me your kernel config, so i can compare to see if there's something obvious changed between versions? i've tried the same with the two versions i have installed but the delta is large enough that it's hard to draw conclusions (esp since many of the options/drivers have been renamed during this period). > may also support WAP encryption but I am not sure about this.
