Comment 13 for bug 275359

I was just taking a look at the Ubuntu 8.10 RC release notes page (http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/810) and it would seem that this is a known issue:

> System lock-ups with Intel 4965 wireless
>
> The version of the iwlagn wireless driver for Intel 4965 wireless chipsets included in Linux
> kernel version 2.6.27 causes kernel panics when used with 802.11n networks. Users
> affected by this issue can install the linux-backports-modules-intrepid package, to install
> a newer version of this driver that corrects the bug. (Because the known fix requires a new
> version of the driver, it is not expected to be possible to include this fix in the main kernel
> package.)
