I also have a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo (I think 1818). The WiFi card is a Fujitsu Siemens D2301 WLAN. ndiswrapper worked fine in jaunty. I kept my jaunty partition as a backup. Since upgrading to lucid it won't work. I've reinstalled ndiswrapper and recreated the /etc/ndiswrapper/ config. I've tested with the 2.6.32-21 kernel, and the latest 2.6.32-22. I also tried using the jaunty kernel (2.6.28) on the lucid partition, and the freeze still occurs. However I can reliably boot and use the ndiswrapper driver on jaunty using the same kernel.
If I boot into recovery mode, resume the normal boot, and then modprobe wlan0, the soft lockup occurs. Once I got a traceback but unfortunately the disk didn't seem to sync properly so I couldn't find it on reboot - but it did have KfAcquireSpinLock in it. (See #526450) Since the jaunty kernel causes errors on lucid too, this seems to point to a problem in ndiswrapper... Would it be worth downgrading ndiswrapper to the jaunty version and testing that? -- ndiswrapper (ntos_wq) tainted leading to kernel crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
