Following my last: I followed the instructions I found at
http://www.distrogeeks.com/install-linux-kernel-3-8-raring-ubuntu/2/ and,
after a second reboot, the wireless seems to work (as it did with 3.6.6)
but:

1. The wireless on/off switch doesn't function; if I unplug the ethernet
connection, the wireless connection takes over seemlessly, and
2. There's no bluetooth at all -- no adapter is found. Before, it was
toggled by the wirless switch.

Regards

David
