  First of all, https://wiki.edubuntu.org/KernelTeam/CrashdumpRecipe
  wouldn't allow me to get any crash dump. It'd seem to get stuck in a
  cycle. I don't know what the kexec'd kernel was supposed to do and after
  it repeating the same actions twice (boot, apparent attempt to start X
  (?), and restart of the cycle), when I saw zero disk activity for 1 min
  or so I gave up.
  
  Anyway, steps to reproduce:
  * disable NetworkManager [might work with it, however my wireless network 
dislikes NetworkManager]
  * connect to the WPA-EAP wireless network with wpa_supplicant
  * run Pidgin and enable Bonjour
  * screen will turn black and freeze
  * CAPS LOCK will start blinking
  
  Running 'avahi-browse -rt _presence._tcp' doesn't trigger the crash.
  
  Important notes:
  * last time I got graphics corruption
  * the kexec'd kernel while loading would fill the screen repeatedly with:
  «[timestamp] iwl3945 <PCI IDs or sth> Microcode HW error detected. 
Restarting.»
  «[timestamp] iwl3945 <PCI IDs or sth> Microcode HW error detected. 
Restarting.»
  «[timestamp] iwl3945 <PCI IDs or sth> Microcode HW error detected. 
Restarting.»
  «[timestamp] iwl3945 <PCI IDs or sth> Microcode HW error detected. 
Restarting.»
  and so on.
  
  If you wish I'll crash my system again happily (lol) but I'd like to
  know what to expect from the kexec'd kernel & some more tips.
