Package: linux-image-2.6.17.11-kanotix-2
Version: 1
Severity: important
Kernel 2.6.17.11-kanotix-2 crashes during boot when attempting to
configure wireless LAN interface (wlan0) configured with ndiswrapper
if the PCICIA wireless card is in the slot during bootup.
Note: the following services were disabled by me (maybe they really
shouldn't?):
-----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<---
update-rc.d portmap disable
