(note the lack of the wireless card now)

Basically, it's a vanilla P4 system. If I put the Linksys WMP54G 4.1 (Rt61 in) within 30 seconds to 60 minutes after bootup, I *will* get a soft lockup on cpu #0. Before, I had this system configured with Dapper and the proprietary driver, now I'm on Fiesty and no wireless. Ah, progress. I wish this horrible driver was never included with the kernel, so at least I would have been aware that it was the network card's fault after I compiled the kernel module and inserted it. Instead, it's taken me hours to figure out this situation.
