Yes, the standard i386 Squeeze kernel is what I have been using. Trying
to use the backported kernel from Wheezy runs into the freeze-up
problem I described. It could not get an IP address even once in many,
many tries with the whatever kernel was current in March, But now, it 
works just fine every time. That's very odd consistency for "unreliable" 
hardware.

I wonder if the original submitter of bug 604613 is still using the same 
machine with Squeeze, and has also found the bug resolved?
