Does anyone know what happened to my wifi card? dmesg to follow...

I updated the system one day, it was working great before and the wireless card was doing awesome. Now, the system doesn't like me right now and I can't figure out why...

Code:
root@telemachus linux # /etc/init.d/net.eth1 restart
* Bringing eth1 down
*   Releasing DHCP lease for eth1...                                     [ ok ]
*   Stopping eth1...                                                     [ ok ]
* Bringing eth1 up via DHCP...                               [!!]


Let me know what else you'll need...

...incoming on the dmesg.

Every time that I try to restart the card, it seems to be lost by the system.

I reinstalled hotplug...that was a no go. It's really wierd, anytime that I try to restart a service, the service crashes and fails on bringing back up DHCP...it's annoying the living crap out of me.
