so as a workaround this should fix the kernel-panics (thank you to
Stanislaw from LKML)
"sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off"
with that you are disabling the powermanagement of wifi-card
After that "iwconfig" should show that the powermanagement is disabled.
michael@eeebuntu:~$ iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=20 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:on
You can reenable power-management with "sudo iwconfig wlan0 power on"
We dont need to built a new kernel to test that, so everyone should be
able to do some testings.
To fix the issue with the power-management a patch already exist and
should be built into the (ubuntu)kernel when the workaround (mentioned
above) will work
