Hard lockup using realtek wireless since 2.6.15-22

[Andrew Zajac]

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6-k7

I cannot reproduce this using older kernels.

The box locks up and requires a manual reset when there is a high throughput using this card (r818x).

There is nothing in the logs that I can find that seems relevant. The box just cuts out.

I was premature in saying this started with 2.6.15-22. I cannot make it crash using the 2.6.15-22-386, where it does crash predictably with the k7 kernel.

For me it crashes with -23 but with -22 it's fine.

I can use the r818x module with 2.6.20-16-generic kernel

Beginning with the Hardy Heron 8.04 development cycle, all open Ubuntu kernel bugs need to be reported against the "linux" kernel package. We are automatically migrating this linux-source-2.6.15 kernel bug to the new "linux" package. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we make this transition. Also, if you would be interested in testing the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release, it is available at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . Please let us know your results. Thanks!
