I often use Linux on one of my laptops, more specifically BackTrack 5 ( No 'funny' business of course ) - currently when I try to connect to my household WiFi network (WPA, DHCP), the Caps Lock button starts blinking, and the machine halts completely.
When I redid this using the Live CD, I got this peculiar message:
"Kernel exception: CPU panicked"
(Followed by the exact same symptoms as mentioned above)
What in Notch's holy hat does this mean?
I am not here to solve the problem, I just want to know what a "CPU panic" really is. Feel free to speak Nerd, I'm fluent
Any ideas?
