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

 

Romano, please file a new separate bug for your crash since it's most
likely not the same issue at all.

demoniodojo,

Could you try to reproduce this issue and take a screenshot or photo or
the errors you're seeing on screen? The issue you're describing sounds a
lot like a kernel panic if the system crashes and locks up with the
display reverting to text mode (and long error messages). I'll reassign
this to 'linux' and stay subscribed to this bug, in case it happens to
not be a panic at all; but we'll need to see the error messages for the
crash to know for sure.

Thanks!

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

Title:
  Computer crashes when connected to some wifi networks

Status in “linux” 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.
