I just tested 2.6.28-11.43~lp349314apw5 on my EeePC 701, and it works as well as 2.6.28-11.40 does.
@Travis Walls: this package replaces your current 2.6.28-11 kernel, so you would just have to reboot. It will continue to be updated when kernel updates are released (meaning that, if you do not put the package on hold and 2.6.28-11.44 does not have this patch, it will regress again).
