I've had the same problem with my Sony Vaio. The wireless card is iwl3945 
and when I did the upgrade (2.6.24 to 2.6.25) there was ipv6 modules and
the package "firmware-iwlwifi" did not work properly. I also had
problems with vserver (Linux vserver - virtualization) module.

I don't know if the bug [1] is the same that your, but it sounds likely
its.

With kernel 2.6.24 all things seem to work perfectly.

I didn't understand, how do you test your laptop with kernel 2.6.26, is it
already in Ubuntu ? In Debian "Lenny" the last (minor) version of the package
is 2.6.25.

My two cents,
