** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: modemmanager
  
  Affects Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS (both desktop and netbook editions)
  
  How to reproduce the crash: connect with USB a Nokia E51 Phone (PC suite
- mode); connect to the mobile ISP (in my case, ibox.tim.it); use the nm-
- applet to disconnect. After a little while (possibly closing the web
- browser) the screen freezes. No possibility of Alt+SysRq+1 or +t, no ssh
+ mode); connect to the mobile ISP (in my case, ibox.tim.it); surf the web
+ using Google Chrome 7.0.517.41 beta. As soon as one closes the web
+ browser the screen freezes. No possibility of Alt+SysRq+1 or +t, no ssh
  connection from another computer, no Ctrl+Alt+F1. The caps lock light
  keeps flashing.
  
  The same problem on both my computers Acer TravelMate 6592 and Acer
  AspireOne D250 (with UNE). Ubuntu 10.10 with USB boot does not seem to
  be affected.
  
- It can be worthy to add that the problem is new, i.e. it arises from
- some update that came around October 2010.
+ The problem does not occur by using Firefox. Also, the problem does not
+ occur by using Chrome with a wireless or ethernet connection. The crash
+ occurs even if you are using a wireless connection, but you previously
+ used mobile connection.
+ 
+ So, probably the bug is in Chrome. I didn't realize this when I first
+ reported this bug.
