wireless working, but random freeze my computer

Hello all. i am a new to linux.

recently i bought a new computer. MSI M645 with intel centrino inside. i have 1GB of ram. i installed openSUSE 10.0. I use KDE as my envierment. after alot of time and sweat (linux newbie) i have installed "ipw-firmware-5-6 RPM for noarch" and gain wireless connection.

but now a every time, a few min after the connection, and useing the internet browser, the systeam freeze and stuck. any idea's how to solve it?

thanks
amit man

I seem to be experiencing a similar problem with my network (not wireless though): after connecting to the network, a few minutes later (I've seen as little as one minute and as much as maybe five minutes), the screen "freezes" as if something has crashed. I think maybe X as I still get blinking lights indicating the connection is still going.

Sometimes the system will freeze for a few seconds, then unfreeze for a split-second and then freeze again ad infinitum. The computer needs to be hard-rebooted to continue.

@anitm02: Are you expericing this symptom as well?

BTW, it might not be relevant, but every freeze that I've had has been whilst trying to use the EasyURPMI website (easyurpmi.zarb.org). The messages in my system log (ie. /var/log/messages) seem to be different every time, so whatever is causing the crash doesn't seem to be causing log messages as well...

I think I've solved the problem on my machine.
Try disabling network hotplugging. I can't tell you how because I don't know SuSE very well, but look in YaST, I'm sure you'll find it somewhere.

thanks.
i will give it a try and tell you how it worked out.

God, i hope it will solve it. it has been keeping me away from linux and into widowns. i hate windows.
