Comment 16 for bug 61388

my powerbook is doing a very similar thing, once and a while with bcm43xx loaded, the keyboard will freeze, mouse still works. When I log out using gdm (no other way) I get those very same "NETDEV WATCHDOG: transmit timed out" messages and the machine just prints it out over and over, I have to manually turn off the machine.

I don't see any pattern as to when it happens, but often enough that I have blacklisted bcm43xx and modprobe only when I need it.

I hope this gets fixed at some point. Over all I'm not as impressed to edgy compared to dapper.
