Package: libsmbios-bin
Version: 2.0.3.dfsg-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
When exiting powersave (standby) and wireless switch is on, this process eats up 99% CPU
making the system slooow and unusable. (Ten minutes to get a shell for killing it)
The system become usable again after killing.
Today for the first time the process has gone crazy even if the wireless switch was off.
My hardware:
DELL LATITUDE D820
Wireless: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) (module iwl3945)
