[vinçouille <v.jousse@xxxxxxx>]

I've done a fresh new install of ubuntu 13.10 on a Compaq Mini 311c-1170sf (same WiFi controller).
When I disable WiFi, sometimes it freezes the system, sometimes it doesn't.

What can I do to help ?

Title:
  system freezes when disabling wifi

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I recently upgraded my laptop (Compaq Mini 311-1100) to Xubuntu 13.04.

  The system freezes in the following situation :

  - Disabling Wifi (either by Wifi button or by network manager). 
  - Stopping network (/etc/init.d/networking stop)
  - System shutdown (the shutdown freezes when kernel tries to disable network). 

  I suppose the problem comes from the Atheros driver (ath9k) with
  Atheros card. Before trying to get latest version and recompile it, I
  submit this bug report.

  Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9285 Wireless
  Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)
