With current official 2.6.31-15 kernel update, boom! Still kernel panic when pressing Fn+F2 to toggle wireless off.
With 2.6.31-16 from PPA by Stefan, it's working like a charm! Allellujah! :D Thanks a million to you, Angel, since it's possible to toggle wireless off to save battery without fear.
And reply to upstairs Ruslan: i believe that in normal Ubuntu update workflow, this patch and update will eventually hit the main repository. And if it's urgent for you, you can just use "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stefan-bader-canonical/karmic", and get an updated package list, and then update the linux-image-* packages and use this pre-release happily. It's quite simple :)
