Hmm.. It's worked well for me. I'll snarf my logs tomorrow and see if I 
learn anything that might be a clue.

This worked well on two HP tx1000 series consumer laptops
and one IBM/Lenovo running Hardy so far.

Hardy's worked well for me so far, as a lamp server as well
as Desktop.

On my laptop, I used dnsmasq as a DHCP and DNS server
and setup iptables masquerading on Eth0 and this turned
that laptop into an access point. I need to play with
WiFi and make it serve as an AP next.
