I've narrowed down the problem to enabling wireless, see updated bug
description. Please note that I'm no longer running the beta of course!
** Summary changed:
- Hardy beta crashes
+ Hardy crashes with rt61 wireless
** Description changed:
- I haven't clue why this is happening, but Hardy crashes randomly. Everything
freezes including the mouse cursor, I hear the sound of the hard disk turning
off (I think that's what the sound is), ctrl-alt-f1 to ctr-alt-f6 doesn't do
anything, nor does ctrl-alt-backspace. At first I thought it was Firefox's
fault, because it only seems to happen when I'm browsing, but then it happened
when I was running Opera. This happened before and after I installed the
restricted graphics driver, and enabled compiz. I'm using Wicd instead of
Network Manager because Network Manager refuses to work on my WPA2 connection
with my rt61 card (seperate bug filed).
- I haven't clue how to debug this or get extra information since the ctrl-alts
don't work. I'd be glad to follow some instructions.
+ Ubuntu 8.04 final release with some updates crashes frequently. When it
+ crashes, ctrl-alt-backspace and ctrl-alt-f1 through f6 are ineffective.
+ This only occurs however, when wireless is enabled. Disabling wireless
+ using network-manager-gnome's right-click menu on the icon solves this
+ issue temporarily.

+ This is my wireless card
