Patrick Wiseman wrote: Package: network-manager Version: 0.6.6-3 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system The system periodically freezes while connected to wired network while wireless is still enabled (but not connected). The syslog has lots of wlan0 activitiy right before the freeze happens. Unsure that network-manager was at fault, I asked on debian-users, and many confirmed. Apparently, installing wicd corrects - further evidence that network-manager is at fault. Well, this certainly looks like a driver/kernel issue, if your system freezes completely. That wicd doesn't expose this behaviour doesn't necessarily mean this is a bug in network-manager, only that this bug is *triggered* by network-manager. FWIW, can you reproduce the problem with network-manager 0.7?
