Title:
  bringing up 10ec:8185 wifi module freezes the system

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  New
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “linux” package in Fedora:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  When 10ec:8185 module is modprobed this causes a complete freeze of
  the system.

  This issue is severe for two reasons:
  * My computer is unable to connect to the network via wifi through a native linux driver;
  * because 10ec:8185 is modprobed at startup, the liveCD will show a black screen without any error message.

  Affected Ubuntu releases: Intrepid, Jaunty, Karmic, Natty, Oneiric,
  Precise beta 1

  Workarounds:
  * ndiswrapper:
      * works on Intrepid and Natty but not on Jaunty
