Comment 24 for bug 643788

I think that this has nothing to do with the compat-wireless.
After installing Maverick I had those crashes too.
How I solved it:
- go to http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ and install 2.6.37-rc5-natty.
- get http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-2.6-stable/v2.6.37/compat-wireless-2.6.37-rc5-2.tar.bz2
- then follow the instructions of Needlez6.
- In startup-manager (grub) change to 640 x 480, no splash.
- reboot

May be you can try just the grub-trick on 2.6.35. I didn't try it.
