Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.22

I installed Tribe 1 on a rev 3 Macbook.  I followed the instructions
here [0] to get madwifi-based wireless networking and proper native
panel resolution working.  After that everything worked great.  Today
I apt-get update && apt-get upgrade'd and in the process lost the
ability to use wireless networking with the following output when I
try to set it up manually:

$ sudo dhclient ath0
[sudo] password for jkakar:
There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.pid with pid 6192

No DHCPOFFERS received.
No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.

I switched to the wired network and found that after a certain amount
of data is transferred (I would guess about 512MB) the network just
dies.  The only thing I've been able to do to fix it so far is reboot.
I can reproduce it by copying a large amount of data.  If I run 'ping
google.ca' at the same time as the transfer it eventually dies with:

ping:sendmsg: No buffer space available

fabbione has suggested trying and older kernel and seeing if the
problem continues.  Will do and report back.
