Well, before I spend a night to understand how to report a new bug, I
need to understand why I need to report a new bug.

I have a Dell Vostro 3700 with me until tomorrow (this is my brother's
computer). Since many Ubuntu releases (10.10 and further), the system is
freezing while running on battery after in average 2 minutes. I've
installed this afternoon the latest kernel (3.6.999) available at
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/current/.

I got some errors while installing the packages (about building some linux 
modules), especially :
> Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.6.0-999-generic (i686)
> Consult /var/lib/dkms/bcmwl/5.100.82.38+bdcom/build/make.log for more 
> information.
When booting on this new kernel, wifi was not working and I didn't face any 
freeze (but I couldn't plug any usb devices though).

I know that's not a proof but I think my problem is related to this bug
and related to wlan hardware.
