New description:
I'm running ubuntu 7.10. I have the latest svn madwifi (i've tried several
versions and the problem occurs with all)
Sometimes, i think when i go out of range of an AP and NetworkManager
tries to connect to another network (in this case one with WPA), processes
hang and cannot be terminated with kill -9. some processes that hang (they
hang whenever i run them after this begins to take place, not just if they
are already open) are sudo, ifconfig, rmmod, modprobe, etc; ACPI reboot
doesn't work either and i need to hold down the power button. This problem
is not new, because i remember it from years ago with madwifi on suse and
fedora. I will attach a dmesg dump, look at the end of it, a lot of
madwifi related stuff is there.
some info that may be needed:
