I have an Acer Aspire 5610 as above and am having the same problems. I have tried booting the 2.6.28.11 kernal image and it still hangs and nm needs restarted.
I have blacklisted iwl3945 and installed the windows driver via ndiswrapper. It still does it with this. I am currently trying wicd/wicd-client to see if it will do the same on here. So far so good. Yet, I would much prefer to use NetworkManager on my installation as that is why my family is used to on our other computers. Interestingly, I have noticed a symptom I'm not sure others have reported. When it is trying to get connect to the router, it gives me a pause in the animation. It seems it stops doing whatever until I move the mouse. Once I move the mouse, the animations start again. This is very reproducable. current uname -a Linux woodnt-laptop 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux -- [Jaunty] Intel wireless 3945ABG is unstable and disconnects frequently https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/348204 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
