I booted with the 7.04 herd 4 live cd, and did the two things described in the fix. In both cases the wireless icon now shows in the network settings graphical tool (Gnome control center) - in 6.10 there were wired icons for both - but there are still two wired network icons in the desktop menu bar. When switching on and off the "wireless" network the tooltip message says "you are now connected to wired network" (or something to that effect). The output from /etc/init.d/networking restart is below. I did log out of Gnome and then back in, but no difference. I did not try 6.10. I clicked through the (good) hardware check interface, but seems there were no wireless check: it just made three green fly-legs under the network test. I can be reached at niels_larsen_denmark in skype if you need. I submitted a report with your hardware tool earlier.
