I believe I have the same, or at the least a very similar issue. These constant CTRL-EVENT- SCAN-RESULTS by the wpa_supplicant are always the last syslog entries on my system prior to the crash/freeze and my manual restart. I also filed a bug report about this. It can be found here, https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ wpasupplicant/ +bug/468519
