I experienced this again this morning with Kubuntu 20070627.liveCD but launchpad was down so I couldn't report it. On this occasion I saw some further messages about 'ipw3945 could not read microcode'

I have since been unable to reproduce the bug so I can't get the full text of the error messages. This suggests that the problem is related to the ipw3945 wireless card in this machine. The liveCD gives no problems on a different machine which has no wireless card. This is a Lenovo N100 laptop.
