Sorry for replying to myself. I just installed the latest kernel from
squeeze-backports (2.6.39) and wireless works fine now. Probably a bug
in 2.6.32 from stable - kernel oopses shouldn't appear in any case.

Hi there,
my DSL modem died today after 10 years of service, so I bought a Netgear
150N DGN1000B. I cannot connect to it via wireless from my netbook
running Squeeze (Linksys WRT45GL works, but it doesn't have a DSL modem).
I think the router is working, since I can connect to it very quickly
with a Mac mini and an iPod Touch. I tried with both
network-manager-gnome and wicd, without any success. I didn't see any
unusual messages in the netbook logs, except "composite sync not
supported". After a few attempts to connect, I started to get kernel
oopses due a NULL pointer dereference in the kernel and the machine
wouldn't shut down properly after that. That's a vanilla Squeeze
install, no non-free packages, not even proprietary kernel drivers
(EeePC 1005PE).
Any ideas? Does anyone have Netgear routers here?
Thanks,
Laurentiu
