Same issue with Gutsy Gibbon with a RTL8180 chipset on a laptop :

lspci gives :
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8180L 802.11b 
MAC (rev 20)

I tried many solutions : native driver with network-manager, ndiswrapper driver 
with network-manager, wicd using wext or ndiswrapper mode. Whatever i do, as 
soon as the connection gets established (i mean right after WEP authentication 
on my ESSID) the system freezes and both the caps-lock and the scroll-lock keys 
are blinking together, requiring pushing up the power button.
No problem at all under Feisty Fawn, though i had to use ndiswrapper driver to 
get the card recognized under that version (no native support).

Please fix it, this is no exotic hardware. Other people, some with same
harware, on ubuntu french forum) reported the same issue. It's always
disapointing to get system freezes at a release stage.
