Public bug reported: Hello, I have set up a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.10.
After some difficulties to boot (the x server freeze sometimes when booting), I cannot set up my WIFI connection as it seems when I configure the NetworkManager Applet 0.7.0 (http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/) the x server freezes (hangs) and I have to reboot the system. Background: prior to install 8.10, I managed to make the system working with ubuntu 8.04 and proprietary driver ( http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=1&PFid=1&Level=6&Conn=5&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#RTL8185L ) I have a desktop with Realtek RTL 8185 wireless card.
