Comment 10 for bug 666852

This bug is gone in 11.10, but replaced by a bug that causes the wireless card to often send some data before the authenticated to a protected network is finished. That prevents the laptop from connecting to a wireless network. However, if you try a few times, with a bit of luck it will work in the end.

The occasional, random kernel panics have not gone away. Then the laptop seems to repeat a second or so of visual and audio output continuously. The visual output consists of a part of a kernel panic message.
