Steven McCoy, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better. This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? if
so, could you please capture the oops following

Hi, I had one freeze (with inoperative caps lock) with the new setup,
when the computer was using bittorrent and experiencing very high
network activity. I'd say since I upgraded to the backports
distributions I have experienced one freeze for every 2-3 gb of data
moved. However the rate of
Just to clarify - since I upgraded the drivers, I have found that the
google bookmark sync doesn't cause the hang (which can be positively
identified by caps lock light not showing) - this is a great improvement
over the situation when this bug report was opened.
However I am suspicious that
Hi Toño, JE, thanks for the responses. I tried installing the following
packages before I saw Toño's comment:
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic-pae
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic
This seemed to work better, but with heavy
Andrew, you may have to activate the backports packages in the synaptic
settings. These are disabled by default.

with or without chrome. I'd like to upgrade the wireless drivers - but
I'm stuck - I can't find this package. Where can I get it? I've googled
it, searched launchpad and tried the lucid-backports site.

Andrew, I'm just upgrade the system and then search the package in the
console with:
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
sudo aptitude search linux-backports-modules-compat-wireless
then I selected the version that match my kerenel (2.6.32.24-pae).
And that's it. If you don't see
Thanks @JE ! that solves my problem. Now I can get rid of the Ethernet

my random system freezes (independent from browser use) got fixed when I
upgraded my wireless drivers to the
linux-backports-modules-compat-wireless-2.6.35-lucid-generic package.
I also have Atheros hardware (ath5k), and not a single freeze since the upgrade.
Kernel is 2.6.32-25-generic.

Freeze is induced by Chromium, too (6.0.472.53~r57). I got as far as
closing the settings import window.

The freeze happens on my Thinkpad X301 and on my Dell desktop when
Chrome opens a new window or tab.
Here is lspci from Dell:

Also of importance: while MadWiFi is stable, it does NOT do well with
suspend/resume. Device interface comes back online, but doesn't return
any results from a scan. Aggravating. :-(

@Gonzo - As you wrote of a rock solid 2.6.35-19-generic kernel in this
context, I switched from my recent 2.6.35-19-generic-pae kernel to your
non-PAE version, since I don't need PAE anyway. Both kernel taken from
the Maverick backports.
Observation:

@Jens: It took a very long time, but even with that kernel I got the
black screen, blinking-caps-lock freeze on my T42p.
It SEEMS to only happen on this kernel when I leave the machine on long

I, too, seem to be solid as a rock using latest mainline kernel
(2.6.35-19-generic #25~lucid1-Ubuntu SMP as of the time of this

I wonder exactly what is wrong with 2.6.32's wifi stack - it clearly
isn't JUST the ath5k module, but the overall interaction between

I TAKE IT ALL BACK.
The new maverick kernel did NOT fix the problem. It just took a very
long time to replicate.
The only fix, so far, is to use the MadWiFi driver, compiled from
source, every time there is a kernel upgrade, and the madwifi driver is
kind of bad... drops connections a lot.
I am seeing the same on my MacBook Pro 1,1, Ubuntu 10.04 with ath5k
wireless driver (kernel 2.6.32.33.23). I only get crashes if bookmark
synch is enabled in Crome (5.0.342.7 beta).

On a Thinkpad t42p with AR5212 hardware and ath5k kernel module, I was
having crashes entirely without chrome, which seems to indicate that

browser) than when
I have solved all my crashes upgrading kernel to 2.6.34rc7.
