Comment(by ixo):

 (joyride 1702, Firmware Q2D13, SN# CSN74800B4E)

 After a olpc-update joyride-1702, did a 'reboot' from "home" off self-
 Buddy Icon. Power at 97%, (not plugged into AC Power).

 On first startup, no Wifi present.
 (Saved a snapshot of dmesg, sysinfo, ifconfig, iwconfig, and
 /proc/bus/usb/devices )

 Tried (root) /etc/init.d/network restart & /etc/init.d/NetworkManager
 restart
  (Still no wifi, and no wireless in iwconfig)

 Menu - "reboot", 2nd time.  Wifi is back.
  (saved a "_after" snapshot of dmesg, sysinfo, ifconfig, iwconfig, and
 /proc/bus/usb/devices)

 (Files attached in tarball , 20080215-csn74800b4e.tar.bz2 , to ticket)
