Hi

I've been trying out the free 14.4kbs hsf driver for my connexant based 
modem on (K)ubuntu 7.04 amd64.  It dials out without problems and I can 
access the internet fine.  However, soon after I start browsing, my computer 
totally freezes (not just Xwindows - even pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1 /etc.  does 
nothing).  I've noticed that it is worse with firefox, which seems to crash 
even after a few seconds browsing, but on konqueror sometimes it can be a 
few minutes.  Nonetheless, it always crashes when I try to log into hotmail.

The output in /var/log/messages for the crash is always mysterious and very 
ugly, e.g.:

I've attached hsfconfig --dumpdiag .  What could be the problem?

Thanks,
