[Bug 892324] Re: Computer crashes when connected to some wifi networks

 

Alexander - running apport-collect when the bug does not have a package
assigned will provide some information but it'd gather more information
if the bug had a package assigned.  With this bug report because it is
about networking the best package is probably network-manager and
because network-manager has an apport package hook more details will be
gathered.  I'm going to change the package to network-manager that way
if the reporter uses apport-collect lots of details will be gathered.

** Package changed: ubuntu => network-manager (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Computer crashes when connected to some wifi networks

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When Iḿ connected to the wireless network of the department where I
  work, the laptop crashes with a bunch of text on screen and I have to
  shut it down by pressing the power button for some time. It just
  happens when I connect to that network, since any other wi-fi or
  hotspot works fine. I know that the wireless router used there is a
  NanoStation Loco by Ubiquity. My laptop wi-fi chipset is Intel
  PRO/Wireless 3945ABG and I'm using Ubuntu 11.10, the latest release.
