Comment 24 for bug 109887

Same to me.

* It's a Dell Latitude D630 and it happens usually on large data transfers. Reboot helps.
* Reloading modules helps, but sometimes the laptop crashes shortly after reloading.
* Crashing drived can be reproduced if "iwpriv eth1 set_power 5" and laptop is not on AC.
