Is it a driver problem of newer kernel? Install the package called 'rfkill' and check what 'rfkill show' displays on both kernels (if there's any difference). And also if you can enable the wifi on the problematic kernel by running 'rfkill unblock 0'. > > In the meanwhile, after upgrading to Gnome 3.0, my screen just go > black after starting the X server. /var/log/Xorg.0.log doesn't contain > any error.

Can you at least get to the login window? Try removing gdm and installing 'slim' or xdm. If with those you still can't even see the login window, then GNOME 3 is not at fault, and it's an X.org problem. -- With respect, Roman ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Stallman had a printer, with code he could not see.
