Binary package hint: modemmanager

Affects Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS (both desktop and netbook edition)

How to reproduce the crash: connect with USB a Nokia E51 Phone (PC suite mode); connect to the mobile ISP (in my case, ibox.tim.it); use the nm-applet to disconnect. After a little while (possibly closing the web browser) the screen freezes. No possibility of Alt+SysRq+1 or +t, no ssh connection from another computer, no Ctrl+Alt+F1.

The same problem on both my computers acer TravelMate 6592 and Acer AspireOne D250 (with UNE). Ubuntu 10.10 with USB boot does not seem to be affected.
