Title: system freeze on heavy network traffic for more than a few minutes.[ath5k phy0: failed to warm reset the MAC Chip - can't reset hardware (-5)] Status in Linux: Invalid Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Since upgrading from 10.10 to 11 every time I use a torrent client my system completely freezes and nothing works to bring it back other than a hard reboot. Usually the lights on my keyboard go out but sometimes they're still on and a Ctrl-Alt-BackSpace or Alt-SysReq- REISUB etc. do nothing. I normally use KTorrent so tried upgrading that to the latest version which didn't help, also I tried downloading a new client qBittorrent but that didn't help either. The crash/freeze is very reliable and happens about 1-4 minutes after turning the client on (with active torrents, if they're all inactive it seems ok). /var/crashes doesn't have any reports related to the freeze. If you need any logs to determine what's going on let me know where to look and I'll add them. If I don't run any torrent clients then other than some compiz problems my machine is stable and can happily run all day. Before I upgraded it was totally stable and never froze - I've not changed any network or torrent client/router config since then. Any ideas?
