Hi, Im running intrepid on a lenovo x200, using the wifi drivers from http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2 and keep having some strange issues. Most of the time what happens is that wifi suddendly dies and i have to restart my machine to get wifi back. (reboot is not enough). But sometimes the machine even freezes or freezes for a couple of seconds every ten seconds or so.
