I've been getting a very similar problem, but I've noticed something VERY different. All of the "temporary fixes" in this thread do not work for me and even if I disable my Wireless, I still get random freezes. BUT if I'm not connected to the internet the: "wifi0: rx FIFO overrun; resetting" won't show up. So, I could be wrong here, but if anyone is having the same problem as me, the overrun might be an effect, not a cause. Again, I'm probably wrong, but it might be something different I have all together. The symptoms are about the same. Every 30 seconds or so, I freeze up, and I can't do anything. Sometimes, I'll recover. Other times, it's game over. I have to reboot.
Hopefully this helps as I really would like to be able to use Ubuntu more often. -- Madwifi (atheros) driver malfunction induces a system freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276445 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
