Same issue here. 
I am using following wlan pcmcia adapter:

02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intersil Corporation ISL3890 [Prism
GT/Prism Duette]/ISL3886 [Prism Javelin/Prism Xbow] [1260:3890] (rev 01)

linux-wlan-ng and linux-firmware-nonfree installed.

When trying to connect to a network, I get the same error:

[ 153.794015] wlan0: direct probe to (routers mac address) (try 1/3)
[ 153.991634] wlan0: direct probe to (routers mac address) (try 2/3)
[ 154.191641] wlan0: direct probe to (routers mac address) (try 3/3)
[ 154.391609] wlan0: direct probe to (routers mac address) timed out

Using the linux 2.6.39-1 mainline kernel fixed the problem, but I acctually 
would like to use the ubuntu stock kernel.
Do you need any more information?
