This error occurs in Feisty Faun (7.04) even after everything is upgraded. I upgrade to Gusty (7.10) with Kernel 2.6.22 and the same issue is occurring.
After some investigation, I noticed that in /etc/init.d/udev on line 62 there is a call to the binary /sbin/udevtrigger. It is this script that causes kernel panic. To test this, I commented out the line (#) and booted. The machine booted, but everything hardware related was broken. I executed the script. The script completed, it returned control to bash. Within about 3-4 seconds, the machine kernel panicked. This only happens when the MA 401 is inserted while the script is being executed, or if it is inserted within 10 seconds of executing the script. It should be noted that this computer was previously running Gentoo Linux using kernel 2.6.21, there were no problems relating to this wireless card. While using Gentoo, the HostAP drivers were used for this card in order to allow the use of WPA_SUPPLICANT with this card. Using Feisty Faun, I tried with low-latency, 386 and generic kernel images, in all cases that behaviour is the same. -- Feisty's Kernel Panics With Netgear MA401 PCMCIA Wireless Installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/95817 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
