Same Problem here. I am on a ThinkPad T61p running Ubuntu 8.10 upgraded from hardy; I too have the 4965 AGN wireless card (home network, Belkin N router, wep2), iwlagn driver, am using the most current kernel and can confirm this issue. After following the "Known Issues" caution (about kernel panic and the 4965 agn on the release notes), I installed the linux backports which enabled wifi with this card. however, the "hang" has always been there. I am am idiot brand new to Ubuntu so only after blamming firefox and opera and reducing them almost to text browsers did I read the error logs and see the problem. Many people across many boards are experiencing the identical issue, often under the impression it is something else.
This appears to be bug 1700 on Bugzilla: http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1700 As well as bug 179698 on launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/179698 And it's very similar to this -which was fixed allegedly: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/264104 I don't use bluetooth so I removed it; one of the posts somewhere spoke of success after killing bluetooth. My error logs continue to show the supplicant state change every few minutes: Nov 24 02:26:21 augusten-T61p NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): supplicant connection state change: 6 -> 7 Nov 24 06:19:13 augusten-T61p NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): supplicant connection state change: 7 -> 6 Nov 24 06:19:13 augusten-T61p NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): supplicant connection state change: 6 -> 7 Nov 24 06:52:29 augusten-T61p NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): supplicant connection state change: 7 -> 6 Nov 24 06:52:29 augusten-T61p NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): supplicant connection state change: 6 -> 7 Nov 24 07:25:45 augusten-T61p NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): supplicant connection state change: 7 -> 6 Nov 24 07:25:45 augusten-T61p NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): supplicant connection state change: 6 -> 7 But since removing Bluetooth, I have not observed any interruption in service. But it remains to be seen whether the disabling of bluetooth has, indeed, made a difference. A full day of use should tell me. -ab -- Intel Pro/Wireless 4965 AG stops transferring data within a few minutes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277634 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
