Title:
With network-manager installed ESSID field is sometimes randomly
scrambled, as seen using iwconfig, or kernel panics -- Compaq WL100
PrismII PC Card orinoco; Atheros AR5001 ath5k
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: network-manager
The Compaq WL100 wlan PC Card (orinoco driver) does not work with Ubuntu
10.04 Lucid Lynx when the package 'network-manager' is installed. If linux
boots, iwconfig reports a scrambled ESSID field after reboot, similar to this:
$ iwconfig eth1
eth1 IEEE 802.11b
ESSID:"f2\x0D\xB71X\xA3Z%]\x05\x17X\xE9^\xD4\xAB\xB2\xCD\xC6\x9B\xB4T\x11\x0E\x82tA!=\xDC\x87"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: None
Bit Rate:2 Mb/s Sensitivity:1/0

Link Quality=52/70 Signal level=-50 dBm Noise level=-147 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0

Sometimes the boot process halts:
* Setting sensor limits [OK]
Skip stopping firewall: ufw (not enabled)
[20.296514] Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is
corrupted in: d6b7820f
[20.296518]
The (wired) laptop works fine when the wlan PC Card removed.
The wireless card works fine when the 'network-manager' package is
removed from the system. Just removing the dependent package
'network-manager-gnome' is insufficient to make the card work.
The problem was discovered and investigated on a Fujitsu Siemens
AMILO-D series (CY23) laptop (Celeron 1.1GHz) with Lucid freshly
installed by netboot. See
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/109443 for further
details in nailing the problen to the 'natwork-manager' package.
