help: R51 freezes when inserting or removing power supply

[user303]

Hi there,

I hope you can give some ideas on what to try...

Someday (a couple of months back) each time I inserted or removed my power supply the laptop froze. I never could make out what the problem was. (R51 2888-Y25, upgraded with 2200bg, 60gig 7200rpm, 1gig RAM)

The last 2 months I have installed a different mini-pci card (Broadcom) for testing. While the Broadcom WLAN card was installed, I never experienced the freezing problem.

Now I have reverted to my 2200bg again, and the problem started popping back up.

I somehow think it has something to do with the drivers. Is there somewhy to "completly" remove the driver and make a clean install without reinstalling the OS?

Any other thoughts on what this could be?

Thanks,
Marc
