Hello Everyone,
I had my system to auto update. It updated my kernel to:
chiques@chiques-laptop:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
Codename: jaunty
chiques@chiques-laptop:~$
ifconfig doesn't see my wireless card:

But lshw -c network does (without a logical name though:confused:):

I've read that b43-fwcutter needs to be reinstalled and I tried that using the package installer. I selected "Mark for Reinstall" but that still did not work. I would appreciate any suggestions.
