I get the same error message ("BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#0!") on my laptop (with 1.GHz Intel Celeron Mobile processor). I've tried to use my PCMCIA WLAN card. There's no AMD AM1772 (netam772) driver for Linux, so I tried the Windows drivers using with ndiswrapper (1.38) on Feisty (kernel: 2.6.20-16-generic). The XP and W2k drivers gave the "BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#0!" error message after "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper". The W98 and ME drivers has been working for 5-10 minutes then gave these endless error messages: [numbers..] ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry: 231): log: C000138D: count: 3, return address: f0114ac5 [same numbers] ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry: 234): code: 0x0 [same numbers] ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry: 234): code: 0x3 [same numbers] ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry: 234): code: 0xf
