I have two HP laptops with:

AMD turion x2 64-bit
broadcom wireless adapters
etc.

uname-a for both laptops:
2.6.24-21-generic #1 SMP Tue Oct 21 23:43:45 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

Both systems freeze and I am sure the freezes are related to wireless.
Either of the laptops will freeze when idle, reconnecting after dropping
the connection (frequent cause) but haven't yet crashed while I am
frequently using a strong connection.  I do have other wireless issues
and can't connect to some access points which causes the frequent
reconnect attempts that often lead to the blinking cursor.  The laptops
will also crash when connected to access points that may work for many
hours at a time without issue though.  Upon freeze the caps-lock blinks
and that is it.

the dv2000 has the bcm4312 802.11 a/b/g adapter running the wl driver
the dv9700 has the bcm4322 802.11 a/b/g/n adapter running the wl driver

Both of these installs are clean and stock with no mods outside of
running the updates and adding a few programs.  I'll be glad to provide
additional information or post differently.
