    Wireless Disabled after update on Pan7

    Hello,
    I own a pangolin7 running ubuntu 9.1 and my wireless is disabled after running a system update. Fn-F11 does not enable it but my other function keys are working fine. I can connect wirelessly to my network from other computers. Any help would be appreciated.

    Please try running...

    sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-karmic

    ...and then rebooting.

    When I run that command I get this:

    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
    or been moved out of Incoming.
    The following information may help to resolve the situation:

    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    linux-backports-modules-karmic: Depends: linux-backports-modules-karmic-generic (= 2.6.31.21.34) but 2.6.31.20.33 is to be installed

    OK, Try running...

    sudo apt-get install -f
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get --assume-yes dist-upgrade
    sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-karmic
