[Bug 1312782] [NEW] syscrash on 'Enable Wireless'

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS with kernel version : Linux anish-pc
3.5.0-45-generic #68~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Dec 4 16:18:46 UTC 2013
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux. My computer is Toshiba Satellite
C655-S5501.

Possible package : Linux

Since I updated to kernel version 3.5.0-46, I've been having problems
with 'Enable Wireless'.Whenever I turn on 'Enable Wireless', I get a
syscrash and have to hard reset my laptop. This happens 9/10 times.
Sometimes it doesn't crash and I can use my computer without any
problems. Sometimes, it doesn't crash when I enable wireless, but then
if I turn off the wireless and reset it, it occurs again. This problem
only exists for kernel version 3.5.0-46 to 3.5.0-48. Previous kernel
versions do not have this problem and so I'm using kernel version
3.5.0-45 as it is stable for me.

This problem first occurred when I updated to kernel version 3.5.0-46.
When I was updating, I lost my internet connection for 10-15 sec and
after regaining it, update-manager continued updating. I thought these
crashes may have been caused because of this and so I waited to new
kernel updates in the hope that this problem will get solved. But that
didn't happen for next kernel updates : 3.5.0-47/48.
