I have the same problem, SiS 671MX - based ASUS laptop. Not sure if the
problem is the kernel, the Atheros AR928X wireless, or network-manager,
but it's the same problem. Kernel will hang after a few minutes of
usage. Tellingly, /var/log/syslog is full of

^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^...@^@^@

which demarks points where the laptop had to be powered off - nothing
else worked, not even ALT+PrtScn+R

Laptop has the same lspci as the first poster, except the VGA controller
is "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series".

I don't consider using wicd (whatever that is) a "fix" as this is broken
for people using this combination of hardware on a default install of
karmic kernel wireless driver and network-manager, so can someone PLEASE
escalate this bug?

Cheers, J
