Hi Brendan and Daniel,

Can you confirm if you see this same issue with Precise on this system (ie. 3.2.0-23.36 kernel)? It looks similar to the issue being seen on bug 972723. The bug reporters there have documented a workaround and analysis in comments #10 and #11 in bug 972723. They have also forwarded the issue upstream.

I'd like to know if this affects the soon to be 12.04 release asap. If so, I'd like to propose disabling this driver for Precise until a proper fix can be indentified.
