SSH on Inspiron 910

Just received my Dell mini running Ubuntu Linux 8.04 about a week ago. Everything has been working great except for SSH over wireless. I found a description of the problem, as well as a fix here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules/+bug/259816

Essentially, this command fixes the problem:

sudo iwpriv eth1 set_vlanmode 0

Apparently, a patch has been checked into the kernel upstream :)
