Package: ndiswrapper
Version: 1.3rc1
Severity: important

After upgrade from linux-2.6.10 to linux-2.6.12 (Debian provided) I noticed 
that Xorg and events/0 are taking the CPU when I use firefox 
for browsing high quality photos and sites like maps.google.com,
but the system is stable (I cannot crash it).

My system freezes (only power button helps) under similar load quickly 
if I use my wireless network PCMCIA card (TrendNet TEW-401PC, based on 
Broadcom BCM94306CB) with ndiswrapped Windows drivers.

I did some experimenting and it appears that the network interface should not
necessary be up for freeze, it freezes anyway if just PCMCIA card is loaded 
and ndiswrapper is modprobe'd into kernel.

On Linux-2.6.12 this card is very unstable, therefore I moved 
to official Linux-2.6.13.2 with some trivial source fixes but the problem 
did not go away.
