Laptop crashes when on battery while using wireless
Hello
I have a Dell XPS 1558 Studio laptop. If I use the version of pm-utils that ships with Natty (or with Meerkat for that matter) then after a couple of minutes on battery while using WLAN, and my laptop will freeze (no mouse, no keyboard). If I use the 1.3.0-1ubuntu1 package of pm-utils then I experience no difficulties.
This would lead me to the conclusion that there is something in the later versions of pm-utils that doesn't like my laptop. I have no idea where to start debugging this problem, but if someone is willing to point me in the direction of how to debug this problem, I am happy to do the legwork.
The Dell has a Broadcom BCM 43224 card and I am currently using the proprietary STA driver.
