Hi all, I never solved this, but eventually got rid of the freezing by buying and installing a whitelisted intel centrino wireless card and replacing the broadcom card. Freezing has stopped. It was clearly the broadcom card that was the problem. This is not a great solution, but its been worth it

Hi. Had the same issues with ubuntu 12.04/12.10/13.04 on my laptop. The solution I found is to replace the kernel with the upstream kernel 3.9.0-030900-generic. It breaks the wifi , but that was fixed by installing the driver provided by Broadcom. It's been 3 days since my last freeze ... still

Unfortunately i am back on 13.04 and installing with the patched driver still results in freezes when on battery. I will try and rebuild this evening. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1174

I can confirm that the freezes and some other buggy things have been absent for a few days now since I also recompiled the patched 64-bit driver. Before that, I would get 2-5 complete system freezes a day (mostly when on battery power) on 64-bit Ubuntu 13.04. The other annoying thing that has so fa

I have now been running the system for about 5 days and have not had one freeze since recompiling the driver. I think this must have been the problem Great to hear that this also fixes the problem in 13.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is s

I can also confirm the same buggy behavior on 13.04 64bit. I can also confirm that removing bcmwl-kernel-source and building from scratch as described on http://www.mindwerks.net/2012/06/wireless-bcm4312-with- the-3-4-and-3-5-kernel/ seems to have fixed it :) Fingers crossed! -- You received this

I have the same behavior on 13.04 64bit. It freezes minimum once a day. I also made a test with 12.04 32Bit but without any improvement. The system freezes with power supply as also without. I also tried switch off the wireless card and use cable. But also the system freezes after some minutes.

This is a frustrating problem. Since filing this bug i have reverted to 12.04, which also went about freezing randomly. It seems though that freezing is limited to when the machine is on battery power - i am still testing this but haven't had a freeze on mains power for a long while. That has lea
