Bug Description
My wireless card causes my computer to hard-lock as soon as I try to do anything with it. Especially problematic when I activated the network manager package, it kept me from logging in (as it seems network manager is started about 1 second after the login splash screen is displayed).
Card info:
the device shows up on lspci as:
0000:00:14.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.: Unknown devic e 8185 (rev 20)
lspci -n reveals:
0000:00:14.0 0200: 10ec:8185 (rev 20)
Other people's experiences as well as a link to the card vendor's 'linux drivers' (Fedora Core 2??) available here:
