Hi Steve,

Yes. My machine (Jaunty updated 30 minutes ago) locks up a few minutes after booting if the kill switch is not on. If I instantly rmmod iwlagn then I can use it for days without lockup. So this is certainly a iwlagn kernel panic.

I have no idea how to get any details as to what is causing the kernel panic. Any pointers would be appreciated.

The bug description "iwlagn causes kernel panic on 802.11n wifi" fits my problem. So unless linux-firmware 1.3 fixed other people's kernel panics then it doesn't seem this bug is really fixed.
