Hello everyone,
I can confirm that I am affected by this bug as well. It is extremely
easy to reproduce and it makes the wireless connection all but unusable.
I have run the apport-collect command suggested above and the report
should be attached to this bug now. Since the 10.04 LTS is so close now
I have marked this as regression-release. I haven't seen this bug with
the latest 2.6.31 kernel found in 9.10, or with any other kernels in
previous distributions. This behavior started occurring when I upgraded
to 10.04 RC three days ago.
In my case, it appears that the bug manifests whenever there is high
traffic over the wireless connection, but it is more prevalent when said
traffic is generated by streaming video within a browser (I've tried
with YouTube and a number of other streaming video websites). Most of
the times, the adapter will disconnect within 30 seconds of starting
streaming and sometimes it will reconnect immediately afterwards. In
other cases, this will take longer to reconnect (ahem, I haven't waited
more than a minute or so before disabling and re-enabling the adapter,
which seems to speed up the reconnecting process).
When the adapter disconnects, the kernel log shows the messages attached
to this post. Note that this particular occurrence resulted in a quick
reconnection, but this didn't make it any less annoying.
