2009-08-22 17:56:31 Jérémy Subtil description On computers with some rtl818x chip based wifi cards, when module rtl8180 is modprobed this causes a complete freeze of the system. This issue is severe for two reasons: * computers with such wifi cards aren't able to connect to their network via wifi through a native linux driver; * because rtl8180 is modprobed at startup, when a new user tries Ubuntu on such computer, the liveCD will show a black screen without any error message, and then the user will blame Ubuntu. Although there are already some similar bug reports, they are all too specific to another hardware so the aim of this report is to centralize any information about actual system freezes caused by rtl8180 modprobes. Affected Ubuntu releases: Intrepid, Jaunty Affected wifi cards : * MSI PC54G3 III Workarounds: * on Intrepid, use ndiswrapper; * on Jaunty, ndiswrapper doesn't work anymore with such chip so there is no workaround to make wifi work.
