[Bug 18362] Re: ndiswrapper usb dongle freezes X

[andrew]

I have this issue on a Dell Latitude CPi and D-Link USB wireless dongle
model DWL-G132.  Works fine in 386 kernels, but various 686 kernels,
including 2.6.15-27 cause the kernel to hang.

Here's output from /var/log/messages under the 386 kernel:
