I haven't experienced any kernel panics with the v3.5-rc4-quantal kernel yet, but another problem not present in the earlier kernel version has been occurring. I don't know whether its related to wifi.
The problem is that during boot up, the computer hangs before rendering of the Ubuntu login screen has completed. On my laptop, in the period starting 5 seconds after boot-up and ending 50 seconds after boot-up, the computer appears frozen, but I can still move the mouse. Clicking on the power icon has no effect, and the box to enter my password is not rendered. The screen has not yet transitioned to showing the desktop wallpaper. About 50 seconds into boot-up, the computer appears to come to life again, and everything proceeds as normal. This happens every time with the newer kernel, but does not happen with the older kernel. I'm attaching the kernel log from one boot-up sequence. ** Attachment added: "Kernel log during boot-up" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1018547/+attachment/3206836/+files/kern.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1018547 Title: Kernel panics when connected to wifi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1018547/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
