I'm not sure it's a duplicate, Aathos, though they may be related. While both chipsets use the same open source driver, they use different ndiswrapper drivers. The workaround listed on that bug doesn't work for me, and unlike the "variable amount of time" mentioned on that bug, mine consistently freezes as soon as it associates to the AP. The lockup happens for me using ndiswrapper, as well as r8180.
