did a bit more investigation: Try searching google for giwscan, from what it looks like to me the first entry may help,
This is the first entry http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0612.2/1394.html They are talking about a (sounds like) similar problem... Maybe you can find a solution there. Also sysctl may aid in the final solution or at least an interim one.
Thanks for helping out with the search Eric. I still haven't made much progress on this one. There is very little info on this issue that seems directly relevant. The computer will lock up - less often - as long as that module is loaded, even if I'm not using the WiFi. If I --force unload the moule then things are fine. It's definitely something related to the WiFi driver. There are still zero hints in the log files. I haven't played much with the sysctl side of things yet for this problem. I'm planning on installing a new/decond drive in this computer to do a little moe in-depth experimenting with other configurations... basically so I don't break my main install any more than I already have. That will take 2 or 3 weeks until I can do that - in the mean-time I'll just used the wired NIC.
