the next boot of 2.6.38-9.43proposed took ten minutes before it started direct-probing (even after turning the netbook on after about seven minutes) and the network connection failed.
I installed mainline 2.6.38-02063805-generic #201105030911 and after about a two minute wait it started direct probing and the network came up. (The netbook happened to already be on.)
These failures are more consistent with the expected flakiness.

I am capturing the logs if you want them.
