[Bug 60313] Re: ndiswrapper in modprobe.d causes system to semi-hang during login

I have the same problem with ndiswrapper and my linksys wusb54g. The
problem only seems to affect gnome though (in edgy), for me at least.

If I leave the network card plugged in when I boot up and try to log
into gnome, I just get a blank screen and gnome never loads. But if I
boot up with the network card unplugged, gnome loads fine, and I can
then plug in the card and it will connect to the network. Everything
works fine in gnome after that until I log out and try to log back into
gnome.

I have fluxbox installed as well, and it has no issues whether or not I
leave the card plugged in, but if I try to run a gnome terminal from
within fluxbox if I boot with the card plugged in or log out and back in
after I've connected, I just get a blank black screen. Other apps seem
to work fine: xterm, firefox, gaim all have no problem.
