Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
If I start my computer plugged into ethernet, networking comes up properly. But when I try to switch to a wireless network, NetworkManager starts consuming almost all CPU and is apparently hung. The syslog suggests a crash in nm_signal_handler. The crashes happen whether or not encryption is enabled. If encryption is enabled, they happen after the password prompt.
This is on Ubuntu Hardy Beta, package 0.6.6-0ubuntu2
Network hardware:
02:02.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection (rev 05)
The computer is a Thinkpad R51
The wireless router is a Linksys WRT54GL, in WPA PSK mode, using WPA1 with RC4 (TKIP)

I have exactly the same problem. I am running on powerpc, iBook G4. It started just today. I am also using wpa psk with a linksys wrt54g router.
I have updated today the following packages:
hal - 0.5.11~rc2-1ubuntu1 (also libhal-storage1, libhal1)
libidl0 - 0.8.10-0.1
liboil0.3 - 0.3.14-3
pm-utils - 0.99.2-3ubuntu2
My error in syslog is exactly the same so I'm not posting again. The only difference is the last line which for me isn't
__kernel_vsyscall ()
but
poll () from /lib/libc.so.6
