FS#57 - computer slowdown during wifi configuration
I am noticing a complete slow down in computer operations when opening the interface properties menu for wifi configuration.
Using the clock applet as a gauge, the seconds get updated every 2 to 4 seconds (this time interval varies.) Mouse and text operations are only accessible in these intervals, as well.
Also, for example, once finished filling the properties and clicking OK, the little activation window that comes up with the little bar scanning back and forth (while the wifi signal is being captured) takes 15 seconds to go from one side to the other!!!
This slowdown has been noticed on all versions .5.1 through the rel2!
I have not been successful at wifi connection in ANY of versions .5.1 through rel2!
After the notification of the first activication notice, most of the time the computer returns to normal operation speed...but not always. Re-boot is then necessary to return to normal speed.
Averatec AV3270-EH1, ralink 2500,
Also when updating to rel2, during the install it said I needed the bcm-43xx driver...and I have the ralink. I used synaptic to remove the bcm-43xx driver thinking there may be a conflict, but that did not help.

BTW, this is true in both live or installed.
BTW #2 This same sort of activity is evident in kubuntu 6.06 as well, only once I click on the enable connection, the whole system freezes....and no action brings it back to life. Again, live or installed makes no difference.

yes, bcm43xx give problems, i have removed it for next 0.6.7, do not use it... well, try the next 0.6.7 and see if the problem persists
I think to its the same report to the bug #63, we continue from it then and i close this one
