 I'm seeing the same log messages on a EEE PC 1015PE running 8.2-RELEASE.
 
 The wireless works more or less, but has very weak reception.  I have to 
 be within about 20 feet of the wireless router at home, or I lose the 
 connection.  I have not been able to use it at all at work.
 
 Not sure if the weak connection could be a driver issue, but as I'm 
 seeing the same log messages, I thought a followup was in order.
 
 I ruled out a hardware problem by booting easypeasy from a USB stick.  
 Wireless performance in easypeasy was fine.
