[Bug 292450] Re: Broadcom STA/wl driver causes random kernel panics
I have completely resolved (or worked around) this problem on my computer. I was having major problems with freezing and kernel panics. I was also losing my connection and not able to connect to certain wireless networks because of their encryption type. I tried switching between STA and bwfcutter multiple times. This might be a little too dramatic of a solution for some, but I was able to completely resolve the problem by simply replacing the wireless card in my laptop.The Intel 3945ABG works natively with Linux, and you can find it for about $10 online. With it, there is no need to install third party drivers! Ubuntu works on the first boot, no problems. It has saved me so many headaches with Fedora, openSuse, Mandriva, Arch, Gentoo, etc etc. Since switching, I haven't had a single kernel panic, and it's been several months. I know this isn't a solution to the problem--I just thought I'd throw the option out there to those who are interested. This is the model I got: 3945ABG Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG 802.11a/b/g Mini-PCI Express http://www.ayagroup.com/product.php?productid=17632cat=0page=1 -- Broadcom STA/wl driver causes random kernel panics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292450 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 292450] Re: Broadcom STA/wl driver causes random kernel panics
If I'm not mistaken, this is an issue with the Broadcom STA driver, specific to 64 bit operating systems. I have experienced identical, random kernel attacks in Ubuntu 9.04, 9.10 and 10.4 Alpha2 as well as in Fedora 12 and openSuse 11.2. If I use the b43 fwcutter extractor, the panics do not occur. The drawback I have seen with the b43 tool however, is that it doesn't support as many wireless encryption types--for example, I cannot connect to a PEAP network at my office. It may be a completely different issue, but wireless in my Windows 7 64 bit OS even becomes unresponsive, requiring a complete reboot. Since the Broadcom STA driver is not open source, I don't believe there is anything the Ubuntu team can do about this problem. I encourage people to submit this issue to the Broadcom team by emailing linux-wlan- client-support-l...@broadcom.com. I'd like to see this issue resolved! -- Broadcom STA/wl driver causes random kernel panics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292450 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
