I've noticed similar problems.  The support for the Intel wireless cards
in my machines -- usually quite solid, given Intel's excellent Linux
work -- is a complete joke, and I ended up abandoning a couple planned
deployments of 10.04 for this reason.  10.04 offers a number of
excellent GUI refinements that make it quite pleasant to use on the
desktop, but has some major quality control problems that have (so far)
stopped me from recommending it.

Fortunately, Debian Squeeze is maturing quite nicely, and I'd say that
at this point it's probably reasonable for desktop use.  It has far more
GUI polish than Lenny (due in no small part to simply using newer
versions of the software) and has so far worked flawlessly on all the
machines I've tried it on (T43p, T500, X60s, X61s).
