After installing Ubuntu 9x Desktop on my Sony Vaio PCG-V505BX I ran into the same issue, after ctrl-alt-f2'ing to another login and running "Top", it showed that WPA_Supplicant was using 97.9% of the CPU. Simply turning off the built in wireless adapter resolved the issue. More or less proving the issue is with the wireless adapter and WPA_Supplicant. I will post again if and when I find a way to resolve the issue, or at least proivide the hardware information causing the conflict.
