Okay, so I had a bit of a breakthrough today.
The Problem
Like many of you, I've been getting some random lock-ups; kernel panic with a
hard freeze I could only end with a hard reset. This seems had something to do
with the wireless card, iwl3945 -- it really didn't like one of the networks at
My Lenovo lspci output is attached. Certainly sounds like the wireless.
Has someone testing a wire-connected 8.10? (I'm needing my laptop in
production for another couple of weeks).
Cheers!

Lenovo folk, can you post your wireless card specs? I'm further under
the impression that this is an Intel 3945/NetworkManager issue, and if
our cards are all the same, it might be worth filing a different bug.

I misread the "solution" - I thought adding backports to the software

I of course, in a surge of confidence, installed 8.10 64-bit Sunday.
Patience is just not my thing.
However, after updating, and then adding intrepid backports to the

just over 16 hours - a record.

I'm a little concerned that "affects compiz" might be sending the team
down the wrong path in looking for a solution. My system locks up on me
even after compiz is fully removed.
I also note that on the same machine, Fedora 9 works fine, even with
compiz running.

We're running x86. Odd - and I feel a little silly - I hadn't thought of
