Same thing here - let me know how I may help. Not so often kernel panics, but random write errors into hard disk files (that resulted in 0 bye files and even once a lost ext3 partition) that start when I use the wireless network.

In my case, it is related to the wireless card Intel 5100, and when I am using the network.

I was doing fine with 8.10 and this started to happen with 9.04. I managed to "solve" the problem by disabling the wireless card (modprobe -r iwlagn) but of course that is not an optimum solution.

There were several bugs that were exactly like this one (i.e. check bug 276990) but supposedly were already solved.

I will start using the backport modules (as the other bug report described) and let everybody know if it helped. Any additional help appreciated.
