This archlinux post suggests powernow-k8 is responsible as well https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18982
Comment by Mauro Santos (R00KIE) - Monday, 12 April 2010, 11:33 GMT-5 I have found a workaround until this gets sorted in the kernel. I have an AMD cpu in my notebook and I have found that if I use phc-k8 [1] instead of powernow-k8 then wireless works fine and I still have cpu frequency scaling. If anyone has an INTEL cpu and is also affected, phc-intel [2] might be worth a try (if the problem is connected with modprobing the cpu driver). Can we get a kernel with powernow-k8 available a module? I upgraded to 2.6.35, and while the problem occurs less frequently, it still occurs.
