Public bug reported:
Hi, I am using a Belkin F5D7050 v 4000 Wireless G USB device which uses
the rt73 driver.
My problem is that whenever the card is using a lot of bandwidth, e.g.
downloading updates and other things, the whole computer seems to go all
choppy. even the mouse and trying to movie windows. It just gets laggy
as if the CPU was at 100% load when it isn't.
It sometimes does it while loading large web pages and doing things
typically bandwidth consuming. I have not seen it happen while
performing low bandwidth tasks like using aMSN or most of the time while
browsing.
I am running Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04 32Bit with all the latest updates.
I am running the following setup:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6420 2.13Ghz
RAM: 4GB DDR2-667
GPU: Nvidia GeForce 8800GT with the latest drivers
HDD: 320GB, ubuntu running on a 40GB partition
MOBO: Intel DG965SS
** Affects: ubuntu
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
