I just realized it is tagged for release in Intrepid, that is why they are ignoring this thread. They consider 2.6.25+ to be the solution and it will be released with Intrepid, but Hardy is LTS! -- Linux kernel 2.6.24-12 lockup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204996 You received this bug notific

I don't think they were aware of the problem when they released it and I am sure they are trying to fix it. But this is the toughest type of bug to fix, especially if you don't have a machine that reproduces. Another problem is that this thread is somewhat closed because someone set it as "fix re

Update for any kernel dev following this thread. I have the same hardware as the original poster (Dell C400, 512MB), possibly with a different wireless card (but the freeze happens even with a wired connection). And 2.6.24-19 still does not fix it. -- Linux kernel 2.6.24-12 lockup https://bugs.

I have the exact same problem as the orinal bug report. Same machine: Dell C400, 512MB. Different wireless card. I have 2.6.24-17. It freezes randomly and completely. Even the network lights stop responding. And there is absolutely nothing in the logs. I tend to think it is related to the ne
